MDKSA-2004:017 - Updated pwlib packages fix vulnerability
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Mandrakelinux Security Update Advisory
_______________________________________________________________________
Package name: pwlib
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2004:017
Date: March 3rd, 2004
Affected versions: 9.1, 9.2
______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
The NISCC uncovered bugs in pwlib prior to version 1.6.0 via a test
suite for the H.225 protocol. An attacker could trigger these bugs
by sending carefully crafted messages to an application that uses
pwlib, and the severity would vary based on the application, but
likely would result in a Denial of Service (DoS).
The updated packages provide backported fixes from Craig Southeren
of the OpenH323 project to protect against this issue.
