Package        : xfree86-1
Vulnerability  : buffer overflow, insecure tempfile handling,
                 denial-of-service attack
Debian-specific: no
Architecture   : only m68k

Several people have noted a number of problems in several
components of the X Window System sample implementation (from which
XFree86 is derived). Please read DSA 030-1 for a detailed
description.

We recommend you upgrade your XFree86 packages immediately.

wget url
        will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.

Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 alias potato


Potato was released for the alpha, arm, i386, m68k, powerpc and
sparc architectures. This advisory only covers m68k which was
missing in DSA 030-1 due to the slowliness of our m68k build
box.

Motorola 680×0 architecture:
