Debian Security Advisory DSA 906-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Martin Schulze
November 22nd, 2005 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : sylpheed
Vulnerability : buffer overflows
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2005-3354
Debian Bug : 338436

Colin Leroy discovered several buffer overflows in a number of
importer routines in sylpheed, a light-weight e-mail client with GTK+,
that could lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

The following matrix explains which versions fix this vulnerability

old stable (woody) stable (sarge) unstable (sid)
sylpheed 0.7.4-4woody1 1.0.4-1sarge1 2.0.4-1
sylpheed-gtk1 n/a n/a 1.0.6-1
sylpheed-claws 0.7.4claws-3woody1 1.0.4-1sarge1 1.0.5-2
sylpheed-claws-gtk2 n/a n/a 1.9.100-1

We recommend that you upgrade your sylpheed package.


Upgrade Instructions
- --------------------
