Renaud Lifchitz discovered that gv, the PostScript and PDF viewer for X, performs insufficient boundary checks in the Postscript parsing code, which allows the execution of arbitrary code through a buffer overflow.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 3.6.1-10sarge2.

For the upcoming stable distribution (etch) this problem has been fixed in version 3.6.2-2.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 3.6.2-2.

We recommend that you upgrade your gv package.");
