** Description :
****************************************************
A vulnerability has been reported in GDB, which possible exploited by
malicious people
to compromise a vulnerable system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in "coffread.c" when
unpacking
executable files compressed with UPX. This can be exploited to cause a buffer
overflow
and potentially allows arbitrary code execution via a specially-crafted UPX
packed file.
The vulnerability has been reported in versions 6.6 till the lastest CVS.
