CVE-2008-2149

Status Candidate

Overview

Stack-based buffer overflow in the searchwn function in Wordnet 2.0, 2.1, and 3.0 might allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long command line option. NOTE: this issue probably does not cross privilege boundaries except in cases in which Wordnet is used as a back end.

A regression was discovered in the original patch addressing this issue for WordNet, which this update fixes.
