Package        : slashem
Vulnerability  : buffer overflow
Problem-Type   : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id         : CAN-2003-0358

The slashem package is vulnerable to a buffer overflow exploited via a
long '-s' command line option.  This vulnerability could be used by an
attacker to gain gid 'games' on a system where slashem is installed.

Note that slashem does not contain the file permission problem
CAN-2003-0359, addressed in nethack in DSA-316-1.

For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in
version 0.0.6E4F8-4.0woody3.

For the old stable distribution (potato) problem xxx has been fixed in
version 0.0.5E7-3potato1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems are fixed in
version 0.0.6E4F8-6.

We recommend that you update your slashem package.
