Package : ganglia-monitor-core
Vulnerability : buffer overflow
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id : CVE-2009-0241
Spike Spiegel discovered a stack-based buffer overflow in gmetad, the
meta-daemon for the ganglia cluster monitoring toolkit, which could be
triggered via a request with long path names and might enable
arbitrary code execution.
For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 2.5.7-3.1etch1.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
