[SECURITY] [DLA 923-1] partclone security update

Package : partclone
Version : 0.2.48-1+deb7u1
CVE ID : CVE-2017-6596
Debian Bug : 857966

It was discovered that partclone, an utility to backup partitions,
was prone to a heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability due to
insufficient validation of the partclone image header. This could allow
remote attackers to cause a 'Denial of Service attack' in the context
of the user running the affected application via a crafted partition
image.

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
0.2.48-1+deb7u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your partclone packages.
