    Package : xpcd
    Vulnerability : buffer overflow
    Problem-Type : local
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE Ids : CAN-2004-0402

    Jaguar discovered a vulnerability in one component of xpcd, a PhotoCD
    viewer. xpcd-svga, part of xpcd which uses svgalib to display
    graphics on the console, would copy user-supplied data of arbitrary
    length into a fixed-size buffer in the pcd_open function.

    For the current stable distribution (woody) this problem has been
    fixed in version 2.08-8woody2.

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

    We recommend that you update your xpcd 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.
