Subject: [SECURITY] New version of ntop released
Debian Security Advisory security@debian.org http://www.debian.org/security/ Wichert Akkerman August 30, 2000
Package : ntop Problem type : remote exploit Debian-specific: no
The updated version of ntop (1.2a7-10) that was released on August
5 was found to still be insecure: it was still exploitable using
buffer overflows. Using this technique it was possible to run
arbitrary code as the user who ran ntop in web mode.
In order to permantly fix these problems an updated package has
been released that disables web mode completely. The version of
this fix is 1.2a7-11.
We recommend you upgrade or remove your ntop package
immediately.

Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 alias potato
