Package : typespeed
Vulnerability : buffer overflow
Problem-Type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id : CAN-2003-0435

typespeed is a game which challenges the player to type words
correctly and quickly. It contains a network play mode which allows
players on different systems to play competitively. The network code
contains a buffer overflow which could allow a remote attacker to
execute arbitrary code under the privileges of the user invoking
typespeed, in addition to gid games.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.4.1-2.2.

For the old stable distribution (potato) this problem has been fixed
in version 0.4.0-5.2.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you update your typespeed 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.
