Insight
Insight
Ulf Härnhammar discovered a buffer overflow vulnerability in www-sql, a CGI program which enables the creation of dynamic web pages by embedding SQL statements in HTML. By exploiting this vulnerability, a local user could cause the execution of arbitrary code by creating a web page and processing it with www-sql. For the current stable distribution (woody), this problem has been fixed in version 0.5.7-17woody1. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem will be fixed soon. We recommend that you update your www-sql package.
