Beschreibung:	Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory CLA-2001:440. The RPM Package Manager (RPM) is the package management system used to distribute and install software by Conectiva Linux. zen-parse found[1] a vulnerability[2] in rpm wich allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code when an adultered rpm package is queried. A malicious user could exploit this vulnerability by sending a carefully crafted rpm package to the printing system, which will query the package to extract the information to print and will execute arbitrary code choosen by the attacker with the privileges of the lp user. Another situation is an administrator or any other user querying such a package to extract information (using rpm -qpi for example) and inadvertently executing arbitrary code from the attacker. Solution: The apt tool can be used to perform RPM package upgrades by running 'apt-get update' followed by 'apt-get upgrade' http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=CLA-2001:440 http://distro.conectiva.com.br/atualizacoes/index.php?id=a&anuncio=002001 Risk factor : High
