The program uses several environment variables as inputs but doesn't apply a size check before copying one of them into a fixed size buffer. For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 4.0.0beta23-2woody1. For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 4.0.0beta26-4. We recommend that you upgrade your crawl package. Upgrade Instructions - -------------------- wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file.
