Package : radiusd-cistron
Vulnerability : buffer overflow
Problem-Type : remote
Debian-specific: no
radiusd-cistron contains a bug allowing a buffer overflow when a long
NAS-Port attribute is received. This could allow a remote attacker to
execute arbitrary code on the with the privileges of the RADIUS daemon
(usually root).
For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.6.6-1woody1.
For the old stable distribution (potato), this problem will be fixed

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon.
We recommend that you update your radiusd-cistron package.
