Debian Security Advisory DSA-096-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Wichert Akkerman
January 2, 2002
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : mutt
Problem type : buffer overflow
Debian-specific: no
Joost Pol found a buffer overflow in the address handling code of
mutt (a popular mail user agent). Even though this is a one byte
overflow this is exploitable.
This has been fixed upstream in version 1.2.5.1 and 1.3.25. The
relevant patch has been added to version 1.2.5-5 of the Debian
package.
wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.
Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 alias potato
- ---------------------------------
Potato was released for alpha, arm, i386, m68k, powerpc and sparc.
At this moment packages for sparc are not yet available.
