Debian Security Advisory DSA-1902-1 security@debian.org

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : elinks
Vulnerability : buffer overflow
Problem type : local(remote)
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2008-7224
Debian Bug : 380347
Jakub Wilk discovered an off-by-one buffer overflow in the charset
handling of elinks, a feature-rich text-mode WWW browser, which might
lead to the execution of arbitrary code if the user is tricked into
opening a malformed HTML page.
For the old stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 0.11.1-1.2etch2.
The stable distribution (lenny) and the unstable distribution (sid)
already contain a patch for this problem.
We recommend that you upgrade your elinks package.
Upgrade instructions

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 alias etch
