Package        : orville-write
Vulnerability  : buffer overflows
Problem-Type   : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE Ids        : CAN-2003-0441

Orville Write, a replacement for the standard write(1) command,
contains a number of buffer overflows.  These could be exploited to
gain either gid tty or root privileges, depending on the configuration
selected when the package is installed.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 2.53-4woody1.

The old stable distribution (potato) does not contain an orville-write
package.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon.
See Debian bug report #170747.

We recommend that you update your orville-write 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 below:

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.
