Debian: acm Integer overflow
Summary
acm, a multi-player aerial combat simulation, uses a network protocol
based on the same RPC implementation used in many C libraries. This
implementation was found to contain an integer overflow vulnerability
which could be exploited to execute arbitrary code.
For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 5.0-3.woody.1.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 5.0-10.
We recommend that you update your acm package.
