Package        : tinyproxy
Vulnerability  : remote nobody exploit
Debian-specific: no

PkC have found a heap overflow in tinyproxy that could be remotely
exploited.  An attacker could gain a shell (user nobody) remotely.

We recommend you upgrade your tinyproxy package 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.
