Package        : lynx-ssl
Vulnerability  : several
Problem type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE IDs        : CVE-2004-1617 CAN-2005-3120
BugTraq ID     : 11443
Debian Bug     : 296340


Several vulnerabilities have been discoverd in lynx, the popular
text-mode WWW browser.  The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
Project identifies the following vulnerabilities:

CVE-2004-1617

    Michal Zalewski discovered that lynx is not able to grok invalid
    HTML including a TEXTAREA tag with a large COLS value and a large
    tag name in an element that is not terminated, and loops forever
    trying to render the broken HTML.

CAN-2005-3120

    Ulf Härnhammar discovered a buffer overflow that can be remotely
    exploited. During the handling of Asian characters when connecting
    to an NNTP server lynx can be tricked to write past the boundary
    of a buffer which can lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

For the old stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in
version 2.8.5-2.5woody1.

For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in
version 2.8.6-9sarge1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your lynx-cur package.
