Package        : abuse
Vulnerability  : several
Problem-Type   : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CAN-2005-0098 CAN-2005-0099

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in abuse, the SDL port of
the Abuse action game.  The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
project identifies the following problems:

CAN-2005-0098

    Erik Sjölund discovered several buffer overflows in the command line
    handling, which could lead to the execution of arbitrary code with
    elevated privileges since it is installed setuid root.

CAN-2005-0099

    Steve Kemp discoverd that that abuse creates some files without
    dropping privileges first, which may lead to the creation and
    overwriting of arbitrary files.

For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in
version 2.00+-3woody4.

The unstable distribution (sid) does not contain an abuse package anymore.

We recommend that you upgrade your abuse package.
