- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : tk8.3
Vulnerability : buffer overflow
Problem type : local(remote)
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2008-0553

It was discovered that a buffer overflow in the GIF image parsing code
of Tk, a cross-platform graphical toolkit, could lead to denial of
service and potentially the execution of arbitrary code.

For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 8.3.5-6etch2.

For the old stable distribution (sarge), this problem has been fixed in
version 8.3.5-4sarge1.

We recommend that you upgrade your tk8.3 packages.

Upgrade instructions
- --------------------

apt-get upgrade
will install corrected packages

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