- A problem has been discovered in slocate, a secure locate replacement.
- A buffer overflow in the setgid program slocate can be used to execute
- arbitrary code as group slocate. This can be used to alter the
- slocate database.
- For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been
- fixed in version 2.6-1.3.1.
- The old stable distribution (potato) is not affected by this problem.
- For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
- version 2.7-1.
- We recommend that you upgrade your slocate package immediately.
