Ärende: [Full-Disclosure] [SECURITY] [DSA-364-3] New man-db packages fix segmentation fault

Debian Security Advisory DSA 364-3 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Matt Zimmerman
August 18th, 2003 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : man-db
A previous man-db update (DSA-364-1) fixed buffer overruns in
ult_src, a part of the "mandb" command that finds the canonical
source file for each man page. However, this update introduced an
error in the routine that resolves hardlinks: depending on the
filenames of hardlinked man pages, that routine might itself overrun
allocated memory, causing a segmentation fault.
For the current stable distribution (woody), this problem has been
fixed in version 2.3.20-18.woody.4.
For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.4.1-13.
We recommend that you update your man-db package.
