Buffer overflow in cdda2cdr allows root access through disk privileges; fix available soon.
`Greetings,
There is a buffer overflow vulnerability in cdda2cdr distributed with (at
least) package cdwtools-0.93-78. This program is sgid disk by default and
thus any malicious user who gains disk privs will have r/w access to your
entire hard drive(s) in the form of /dev/hd*. This is obviously a quick root
compromise. Fixed packages will be available soon from various vendors
(probably by the time you read this).
Note that this particular overflow does not affect cdda2wav.
