$Revision: 1.1 $

Cve_id:

CAN-2005-0072

Bugtraq_id:

-

Xrefs:

DSA:655

Description:

Erik Sj÷lund discovered that zhcon, a fast console CJK system using
the Linux framebuffer, accesses a user-controlled configuration file
with elevated privileges. Thus, it is possible to read arbitrary
files.
For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.2-4woody3.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon.
We recommend that you upgrade your zhcon package.
