DSA-1214-2 gv Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The original update provided in DSA 1214-1 was insufficient this update corrects this. For reference please find the original advisory text below: Renaud Lifchitz discovered that gv, the PostScript and PDF viewer for X, performs insufficient boundary checks in the Postscript parsing code, which permits the execution of arbitrary code through a buffer overflow. For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 3.6.1-10sarge2. For the upcoming stable distribution (etch) this problem has been fixed in version 3.6.2-2. For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 3.6.2-2. We recommend that you upgrade your gv package.
