Package        : netatalk
Vulnerability  : missing input sanitising
Problem type   : local(remote)
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CVE-2008-5718
Debian Bug     : 510585

It was discovered that netatalk, an implementation of the AppleTalk
suite, is affected by a command injection vulnerability when processing
PostScript streams via papd.  This could lead to the execution of
arbitrary code.  Please note that this only affects installations that are
configured to use a pipe command in combination with wildcard symbols
substituted with values of the printed job.

For the stable distribution (etch) this problem has been fixed in
version 2.0.3-4+etch1.

For the upcoming stable distribution (lenny) this problem has been fixed
in version 2.0.3-11+lenny1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 2.0.4~beta2-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your netatalk package.
