Buffer overflow in the open_sty function in mkind.c for makeindex 2.14 in
teTeX might allow user-assisted remote attackers to overwrite files and
possibly execute arbitrary code via a long filename. NOTE: other overflows
exist but might not be exploitable, such as a heap-based overflow in the
check_idx function.
