[DSA1129] DSA-1129-1 osiris

Vulnerability Assessment Summary
DSA-1129-1 osiris

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

Ulf Härnhammar and Max Vozeler from the Debian Security Audit Project
have found several format string security bugs in osiris, a
network-wide system integrity monitor control interface. A remote
attacker could exploit them and cause a denial of service or execute
arbitrary code.
For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in
version 4.0.6-1sarge1.
For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in
version 4.2.0-2.
We recommend that you upgrade your osiris packages.
