DSA-1100-1 wv2 Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment A boundary checking error has been discovered in wv2, a library for accessing Microsoft Word documents, which can lead to an integer overflow induced by processing word files. The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain wv2 packages. For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 0.2.2-1sarge1 For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon.
