Kevin Finisterre discovered several format string problems in vlc, a
multimedia player and streamer, that could lead to the execution of
arbitrary code.
For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.8.1.svn20050314-1sarge2.
For the testing distribution (etch) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.8.6-svn20061012.debian-3.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.8.6.a.debian-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your vlc packages.
