Detail

Stephen Dranger discovered a buffer overflow in linpopup, an X11 port of winpopup, running over Samba, that could lead to the execution of arbitrary code when displaying a maliciously crafted message.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 1.2.0-2woody1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 1.2.0-7.

We recommend that you upgrade your linpopup package.
