Foresight Linux Essential Advisory: 2007-0069-1
Published: 2007-11-11

Rating: Minor

Updated Versions:
    perl=/conary.rpath.com@rpl:devel//1/5.8.7-8.2-1
    group-dist=/foresight.rpath.org@fl:1-devel//1/1.4.1-0.2-3

References:
    http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-5116

Description:
    Previous versions of the perl package contain a buffer overflow in the
    regular expression parsing code which could allow an attacker to execute
    arbitrary code via a program which uses perl to parse untrusted input as a
    regular expression.

    Foresight Linux does not include any such program by default.
