Immunix OS Security Advisory: gftpApr 29, 2001, 21:33 (0 Talkback[s])Date: Fri, 27 Apr 2001 13:53:54 -0700 From: Greg KH <greg@WIREX.COM> Subject: Immunix OS Security update for gftp Immunix OS Security Advisory Packages updated: gftp Affected products: Immunix OS 6.2, 7.0-beta, and 7.0 Bugs Fixed: immunix/1578 Date: April 27, 2001 Advisory ID: IMNX-2001-70-017-01 Author: Greg Kroah-Hartman <greg@wirex.com> Description: Normally, printf-style format bugs like this one would be stopped by FormatGuard, but FormatGuard is only effective at protecting applications that use the printf-like family of functions found in glibc. gftp uses string formatting functions found in GLib (the GTK+ library, not glibc) which bypass FormatGuard protection. The following packages fix this problem.
