Bug#448763: CVE-2007-5690 Buffer overflow in sethdlc.c

[Nico Golde]

Package: zaptel
Severity: normal
Tags: security

Hi,
the following CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id was
published for zaptel.

CVE-2007-5690[0]:
| Buffer overflow in sethdlc.c in the Asterisk Zaptel 1.4.5.1 might
| allow local users to gain privileges via a long device name (interface
| name) in the ifr_name field.

If you fix this vulnerability please also include the CVE id
in your changelog entry.

This is not really a security problem in Debian since
sethdlc-new is not suid root so it will just segfault.

For further information:

Kind regards
Nico
