Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory
_______________________________________________________________________
Package name: irssi
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2003:117
Date: December 18th, 2003
Affected versions: 9.1, 9.2
______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
A vulnerability in versions of irssi prior to 0.8.9 would allow a
remote user to crash another user's irssi client provided that the
client was on a non-x86 architecture or if the "gui print text"
signal is being used by some script or plugin.
The updated packages provide 0.8.9 which corrects the problem.
