DSA 945-1: New antiword packages fix insecure temporary file creation

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

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Debian Security Advisory DSA 945-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Martin Schulze
January 17th, 2006 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : antiword
Vulnerability : insecure temporary file
Problem type : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2005-3126

Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña from the Debian Security Audit project
discovered that two scripts in antiword, utilities to convert Word
files to text and Postscript, create a temporary file in an insecure
fashion.

For the old stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in
version 0.32-2woody0.

For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in
version 0.35-2sarge1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in
version 0.35-2.

We recommend that you upgrade your antiword 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.
