Package           : htdig
Vulnerability type: remote exploit
Debian-specific   : no

The version of htdig that was shipped in Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 has a
problem with calling external programs to handle non-HTML documents:
it calls the external program with the document as a parameter, but
does not check for shell escapes. This can be exploited by creating
files with filenames that include shell escapes to run arbitraty
commands on the machine that runs htdig.


This has been fixed in version 3.1.2-4slink6. We recommend you
upgrade your htdig package immediately.


wget url
        will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.

Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 alias slink
- --------------------------------

  This version of Debian was released only for Intel ia32, the
  Motorola 680x0, the alpha and the Sun sparc architecture.
