Detail
| Niko Tyni discovered a buffer overflow in the processing of network data in typespeed, a game for testing and improving typing speed, which could lead to the execution of arbitrary code. For the old stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 0.4.1-2.4. For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 0.4.4-8sarge1. For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 0.4.4-10. We recommend that you upgrade your typespeed packages. |
