Debian Security Advisory DSA 1149-1                    security@...ian.org

Package        : ncompress
Vulnerability  : buffer underflow
Problem type   : local (remote)
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CVE-2006-1168

Tavis Ormandy from the Google Security Team discovered a missing
boundary check in ncompress, the original Lempel-Ziv compress and
uncompress programs, which allows a specially crafted datastream to
underflow a buffer with attacker controlled data.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in
version 4.2.4-15sarge2.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 4.2.4-15sarge2.

We recommend that you upgrade your ncompress 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 at the end of this advisory:

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.
