[SECURITY] [DSA-2102-1] New barnowl packages fix arbitrary code execution
- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Debian Security Advisory DSA-2102-1 security@debian.org
Debian -- Security Information Sébastien Delafond

Package : barnowl
Vulnerability : unchecked return value
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id : CVE-2010-2725
Debian Bug : 593299

It has been discovered that in barnowl, a curses-based instant-messaging
client, the return codes of calls to the ZPending and ZReceiveNotice
functions in libzephyr were not checked, allowing attackers to cause a
denial of service (crash of the application), and possibly execute
arbitrary code.

For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.0.1-4+lenny2.

For the testing distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.6.2-1.

For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.6.2-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your barnowl packages.
