Synopsis:	Moderate: e2fsprogs security update
Issue date:	2008-01-07
CVE Names:	CVE-2007-5497

Multiple integer overflow flaws were found in the way e2fsprogs processes
file system content. If a victim opens a carefully crafted file system with
a program using e2fsprogs, it may be possible to execute arbitrary code
with the permissions of the victim. It may be possible to leverage this
flaw in a virtualized environment to gain access to other virtualized
hosts. (CVE-2007-5497)
