Lynx is a text-based Web browser.

An arbitrary command execute bug was found in the lynx “lynxcgi:” URI
handler. An attacker could create a web page redirecting to a malicious URL
which could execute arbitrary code as the user running lynx. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project assigned the name CVE-2005-2929 to
this issue.

Users should update to this erratum package, which contains a backported
patch to correct this issue.
