It was discovered that a buffer overflow in the GIF image parsing code
of Tk, a cross-platform graphical toolkit, could lead to a denial of
service and potentially the execution of arbitrary code.
For the old stable distribution (sarge), this problem has been fixed in
version 8.3.5-4sarge1.
For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 8.3.5-6etch2.
We recommend that you upgrade your tk8.3 packages.
