Xfce is a GTK+ 2 based desktop environment that allows to run a modern
desktop environment on modest hardware.

<description>
<p>
Gregory Andersen reported that Xfce4 panel does not correctly calculate
memory boundaries, leading to a stack-based buffer overflow in the
launcher_update_panel_entry() function (CVE-2007-6531). Daichi Kawahata
reported libxfcegui4 did not copy provided values when creating
"SessionClient" structs, possibly leading to access of freed memory
areas (CVE-2007-6532).
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>
A remote attacker could entice a user to install a specially crafted
"rc" to execute arbitrary code with file via long strings in the "Name"
and "Comment" fields or via unspecified vectors involving the second
vulnerability.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
All Xfce4 panel users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=xfce-base/xfce4-panel-4.4.2"</code>
<p>
All libxfcegui4 users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=xfce-base/libxfcegui4-4.4.2"</code>
<p>
Please refer to the Upgrading section of the Xfce Configuration Guide
in case you are upgrading from Xfce 4.2.
