Detail
| "jaguar" has discovered two security relevant problems in gopherd, the Gopher server in Debian which is part of the gopher package. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following vulnerabilities: CAN-2004-0560 An integer overflow can happen when posting content of a specially calculated size. CAN-2004-0561 A format string vulnerability has been found in the log routine. For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 3.0.3woody2. The unstable distribution (sid) does not contain a gopherd package. It has been replaced by Pygopherd. We recommend that you upgrade your gopherd package. |
