Advisory number: CSSA-2003-009.0

1. Problem Description
The slocate command suffers from two command line buffer
overflows.
2. Vulnerable Supported Versions
System Package
----------------------------------------------------------------------
OpenLinux 3.1.1 Server prior to slocate-2.6-3.i386.rpm
OpenLinux 3.1.1 Workstation prior to slocate-2.6-3.i386.rpm
OpenLinux 3.1 Server prior to slocate-2.6-3.i386.rpm
OpenLinux 3.1 Workstation prior to slocate-2.6-3.i386.rpm
3. Solution
The proper solution is to install the latest packages. Many
customers find it easier to use the Caldera System Updater, called
cupdate (or kcupdate under the KDE environment), to update these
packages rather than downloading and installing them by hand.
