3. Description:

 

FreeType is a free, high-quality, portable font engine that can open and

manage font files. It also loads, hints, and renders individual glyphs

efficiently. The freetype packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 provide

both the FreeType 1 and FreeType 2 font engines. The freetype packages for

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 and 6 provide only the FreeType 2 font engine.

 

Multiple input validation flaws were found in the way FreeType processed

CID-keyed fonts. If a specially-crafted font file was loaded by an

application linked against FreeType, it could cause the application to

crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the

user running the application. (CVE-2011-3439)

 

Note: These issues only affected the FreeType 2 font engine.

 

Users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a

backported patch to correct these issues. The X server must be restarted

(log out, then log back in) for this update to take effect.

 

4. Solution:

 

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata

relevant to your system have been applied.

 

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to

use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at

https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-11259

 

5. Bugs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/):

 

753799 - CVE-2011-3439 freetype: Multiple security flaws when loading CID-keyed Type 1 fonts
