RedHat Security Advisory RHSA-2009:0476

The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory RHSA-2009:0476. Pango is a library used for the layout and rendering of internationalized text. Will Drewry discovered an integer overflow flaw in Pango's pango_glyph_string_set_size() function. If an attacker is able to pass an arbitrarily long string to Pango, it may be possible to execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the application calling Pango. Pango and evolution28-pango users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to resolve this issue. After installing this update, you must restart your system or restart the X server for the update to take effect. Note: Restarting the X server closes all open applications and logs you out of your session
