DSA-638-1 gopher Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment "jaguar" has discovered two security relevant problems in gopherd, the Gopher server in Debian which is part of the gopher package. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following vulnerabilities: An integer overflow can happen when posting content of a specially calculated size. A format string vulnerability has been found in the log routine. For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 3.0.3woody2.
