                     Mandrakelinux Security Update Advisory
     _______________________________________________________________________

     Package name: libneon
     Advisory ID: MDKSA-2004:049
     Date: May 19th, 2004

     Affected versions: 10.0, 9.2
     ______________________________________________________________________

     Problem Description:

     It was discovered that in portions of neon, sscanf() is used in an unsafe
     manner. This will result in an overflow of a static heap variable.
     
     The updated packages provide a patched libneon to correct these
     problems.
