Subject:		Linux: wwwoffled remote access vulnerability 
Advisory number: 	CSSA-2002-048.0
Issue date: 		2002 November 18

1. Problem Description

	wwwoffled allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
	and possibly execute arbitrary code via a negative Content-Length
	value.


2. Vulnerable Supported Versions

	System				Package
	----------------------------------------------------------------------

	OpenLinux 3.1.1 Workstation	prior to wwwoffle-2.6b-3MR.i386.rpm

	OpenLinux 3.1 Workstation	prior to wwwoffle-2.6b-3MR.i386.rpm


3. Solution

	The proper solution is to install the latest packages. Many
