SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA21759

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/21759/

CRITICAL:
Moderately critical

IMPACT:
DoS, System access

WHERE:
>From remote

OPERATING SYSTEM:
Debian GNU/Linux 3.1
http://secunia.com/product/5307/
Debian GNU/Linux unstable alias sid
http://secunia.com/product/530/

DESCRIPTION:
Debian has issued an update for cheesetracker. This fixes a
vulnerability, which can be exploited by malicious people to
compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the XM loader
in cheesetracker/loaders/loader_xm.cpp when handling input files.
This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow and may
allow arbitrary code execution via a specially crafted input file.

SOLUTION:
Apply updated package.
