Debian Security Advisory DSA 677-1 security
http://www.debian.org/security/ Martin Schulze
February 11th, 2005 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : sympa
Vulnerability : buffer overflow
Problem-Type : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CAN-2005-0073
Erik Sjölund discovered that a support script of sympa, a mailing list
manager, is running setuid sympa and vulnerable to a buffer overflow.
This could potentially lead to the execution of arbitrary code under
the sympa user id.
For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 3.3.3-3woody2.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon.
We recommend that you upgrade your sympa package.
