Debian Security Advisory DSA 550-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Martin Schulze
September 20th, 2004 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : wv
Vulnerability : buffer overflow
Problem-Type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CAN-2004-0645
Debian Bug : 264972
iDEFENSE discovered a buffer overflow in the wv library, used to
convert and preview Microsoft Word documents. An attacker could
create a specially crafted document that could lead wvHtml to execute
arbitrary code on the victims machine.
For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.7.1+rvt-2woody3.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon.
We recommend that you upgrade your wv package.
