Problem-Type   : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CAN-2004-0226 CAN-2004-0231 CAN-2004-0232

Jacub Jelinek discovered several vulnerabilities in the Midnight
Commander, a powerful file manager for GNU/Linux systems.  The
problems were classified as follows:

CAN-2004-0226 Buffer overflows
CAN-2004-0231 Insecure temporary file and directory creations

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your mc packages.
