Yderligere oplysninger:

Bill Nottingham rapporterede et problem i wrapping/unwrapping-funktionerne i slrn-newslæseren. En lang header i en artikel kunne få bufferen til at løbe over, hvilket kunne resultere i at vilkårlig, kodet (encoded) programkode i artiklen kunne udføres.

Wrapping er slået fra i standard-opsætningen, men den kan nemt slås til ved enten at ændre opsætningen eller ved at trykke på W mens man læser en artikel.

Dette er rettet i 0.9.6.2-9potato1 og vi anbefaler at du omgående opgraderer din slrn-pakke.

Rettet i:

Debian 2.2 (potato)
