Description Vladimir Lettiev 2009-07-21 15:51:24 MSD
Various memory corruption vulnerabilities have been identified during a
security audit of the CDF library. The vulnerabilities exist in the code
processing CDF files.

The vendor has addressed vulnerabilities on 20.7.2009. with CDF
library version 3.3. New CDF library 3.3 has 'cdfvalidate' module
that will validate CDF files for potential malformed values.

Vulnerability discovered by Leon Juranic <leon.juranic@infigo.hr>

Версия 3.3 стала собирать только libcdf.so
вместо прежнего soname, пока не решил, что делать.
