Detail

A buffer overflow has been discovered in the Xpm library which is used in XFree86. A remote attacker could provide a specially crafted XPM image that could lead to the execution or arbitrary code.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 4.1.0-16woody6

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed in version 4.3.0.dfsg.1-13, which is currently in preparation.

We recommend that you upgrade your xfree86 and associated packages.
