Description:
man-db - The on-line manual pager
Closes: 203475
Changes:
man-db (2.4.1-11) unstable; urgency=high
.
* Fix several security problems reported on BugTraq (closes: #203475):
- Limit sscanf() calls to the appropriate buffer size while reading
configuration file.
- Allocate strings dynamically while finding the ultimate source of man
pages, avoiding a couple of buffer overflows.
- Die gracefully if MANPATH contains too many elements, as a stopgap
measure until proper list handling can be added.
