Description:

Brian Campbell discovered two security-related problems in
gkrellm-newsticker, a plugin for the gkrellm system monitor program,
which provides a news ticker from RDF feeds. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following
problems:
For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in
version 0.3-3.1.
The old stable distribution (potato) is not affected since it doesn't
contain gkrellm-newsticker packages.
For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems is not yet fixed.
We recommend that you upgrade your gkrellm-newsticker package.
