Insight

Insight

Thilo Pfennig and Morten Welinder discovered several integer overflow weaknesses in Gnumeric, a GNOME spreadsheet application. These vulnerabilities could result in the execution of arbitrary code through the opening of a maliciously crafted Excel spreadsheet. For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version 1.6.3-5+etch1. For the unstable (sid) distribution, these problems were fixed in version 1.8.1-1. We recommend that you upgrade your gnumeric packages.
