Debian GNU/Linux Security February 15th, 1999 We have received reports about two buffer overflows in the super package which was distributed as part of Debian GNU/Linux. Firstly, for per-user .supertab files super didn't check for a buffer overflow when creating the path to the user's .supertab file. Secondly another buffer overflow did allow ordinary users to overflow super by creating a nasty personal .supertab file. We recommend you upgrade your super packages immediately. wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file. Debian GNU/Linux 2.0 alias hamm, upcoming 2.1 alias slink and unstable ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The binary package is the same for all distributions of Debian GNU/Linux since it doesn't link to any special library.

The package is likely to be recompiled for them within the next few days. -- Debian GNU/Linux . Security Managers . [email protected] [email protected] Christian Hudon . Wichert Akkerman .
