Subject: missing fix for CVE-2005-0504 in moxa
Date: Tue, 2 Jan 2007 18:38:30 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070103013830.GM17404@krebs.dannf> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20060816225742.GD11954@krebs.dannf>

hey,
  I noticed that the moxa input checking security bug described by
CVE-2005-0504 appears to remain unfixed upstream.
 
The issue is described here:
  http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2005-0504

Debian has been shipping the following patch from Andres Salomon. I
tried contacting the listed maintainer a few months ago but received
no response.

I've tested that this still applies to and compiles against
2.6.20-rc3.
