Subject:      Security ERRATA Medium: graphviz on SL5.x i386/x86_64

Synopsis:	Medium: graphviz security, bug fix, and enhancement update
CVE Names:	CVE-2008-4555

Stack-based buffer overflow in the push_subg function in parser.y 
(lib/graph/parser.c) in Graphviz 2.20.2, and possibly earlier versions, 
allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service 
(memory corruption) or execute arbitrary code via a DOT file with a 
large number of Agraph_t elements. (CVE-2008-4555)

Note: graphviz-ocaml is no longer supported in the SL version of 
graphiviz.  This is because ocaml was never included.  If you do have 
graphviz-ocaml installed, you will have to remove it before doing this 
update.

Note: This update is already in SL 5.4

SL 5.x
