Package        : xbl
Vulnerability  : buffer overflow
Problem-Type   : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE Ids        : CAN-2003-0535

Another buffer overflow was discovered in xbl, distinct from the one
addressed in DSA-327 (CAN-2003-0451), involving the -display command
line option.  This vulnerability could be exploited by a local
attacker to gain gid 'games'.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.0k-3woody2.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem is fixed in version
1.0k-6.

We recommend that you update your xbl package.
