Package : typespeed
Vulnerability : buffer overflow
Problem-Type : local
Debian-specific: no
A problem has been discovered in the typespeed, a game that lets you
measure your typematic speed. By overflowing a buffer a local
attacker could execute arbitrary commands under the group id games.
For the current stable distribution (woody) this problem has been
fixed in version 0.4.1-2.1.
For the old stable distribution (potato) this problem has been fixed
in version 0.4.0-5.1.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.4.2-2.
We recommend that you upgrade your typespeed package.
