Package : link-grammar
Vulnerability : buffer overflow
Problem type : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2007-5395
Debian Bug : 450695
Alin Rad Pop discovered that link-grammar, Carnegie Mellon University's
link grammar parser for English, performed insufficient validation within
its tokenizer, which could allow a malicious input file to execute
arbitrary code.
For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version
4.2.2-4etch1.
For the old stable distribution (sarge), this package was not present.
For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem was fixed in version
4.2.5-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your link-grammar package.
