- GOBBLES found an insecure use of format strings in the super package.
- The included program super is intended to provide access to certain
- system users for particular users and programs, similar to the program
- sudo. Exploiting this format string vulnerability a local user can
- gain unauthorized root access.
- This problem has been fixed in version 3.12.2-2.1 for the old stable
- distribution (potato), in version 3.16.1-1.1 for the current stable
- distribution (woody) and in version 3.18.0-3 for the unstable
- distribution (sid).
- We recommend that you upgrade your super package immediately.
