The Debian Security Team published a new security update for Debian GNU/Linux. Here the announcement:

Debian Security Advisory DSA 891-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Martin Schulze
November 9th, 2005 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : gpsdrive
Vulnerability : format string
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2005-3523

Kevin Finisterre discovered a format string vulnerability in gpsdrive,
a car navigation system, that can lead to the execution of arbitrary
code.

The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain gpsdrive packages.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in
version 2.09-2sarge1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 2.09-2sarge1.

We recommend that you upgrade your gpsdrive 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.


Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 alias sarge
