Package : wmaker
Problem type : buffer overflow
Debian-specific: no
Alban Hertroys found a buffer overflow in Window Maker (a popular window
manager for X). The code that handles titles in the window list menu did
not check the length of the title when copying it to a buffer. Since
applications will set the title using untrusted data (for example web
browsers will set the title of their window to the title of the web-page
being shown) this could be exploited remotely.
This has been fixed in version 0.61.1-4.1 of the Debian package, and
upstream version 0.65.1.
wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.
Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 alias potato

Potato was released for alpha, arm, i386, m68k, powerpc and sparc.
