-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA 472-1 security@debian.org http://www.debian.org/security/ Matt Zimmerman April 3rd, 2004 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : fte Vulnerability : several Problem-Type : buffer overflows Debian-specific: no CVE Ids : CAN-2003-0648 Debian bug : #203871 Steve Kemp and Jaguar discovered a number of buffer overflow vulnerabilities in vfte, a version of the fte editor which runs on the Linux console, found in the package fte-console. This program is setuid root in order to perform certain types of low-level operations on the console. Due to these bugs, setuid privilege has been removed from vfte, making it only usable by root. We recommend using the terminal version (in the fte-terminal package) instead, which runs on any capable terminal including the Linux console. For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 0.49.13-15woody1. For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 0.50.0-1.1. We recommend that you update your fte package. Upgrade Instructions - -------------------- wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file. If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for sources.list as given below: apt-get update will update the internal database apt-get upgrade will install corrected packages You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the footer to the proper configuration.
