Debian Security Advisory
DSA-1386-1 wesnoth -- programming error
- Date Reported:
- 15 Oct 2007
- Affected Packages:
- wesnoth
- Vulnerable:
- Yes
- Security database references:
- In Mitre's CVE dictionary: CVE-2007-3917.
- More information:
-
A problem has been discovered in the processing of chat messages. Overly long messages are truncated by the server to a fixed length, without paying attention to the multibyte characters. This leads to invalid UTF-8 on clients and causes an uncaught exception. Note that both wesnoth and the wesnoth server are affected.
For the old stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 0.9.0-6 and in version 1.2.7-1~bpo31+1 of sarge-backports.
For the stable distribution (etch) this problem has been fixed in version 1.2-2 and in version 1.2.7-1~bpo40+1 of etch-backports.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 1.2.7-1.
Packages for the oldstable mips architecture will be added to the archive later.
We recommend that you upgrade your wesnoth packages.
- Fixed in:
-
Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 (sarge)
