The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project identifies the following problems: CAN-2004-1095 Luke Macken and "infamous41md" independently discoverd multiple integer overflows in zgv. Remote exploitation of an integer overflow vulnerability could allow the execution of arbitrary code. CAN-2004-0999 Mikulas Patocka discovered that malicious multiple-image (e.g. animated) GIF images can cause a segmentation fault in zgv. For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 5.5-3woody1. For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems will be fixed soon. We recommend that you upgrade your zgv package immediately. Upgrade Instructions -------------------- wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file.
