Problem Description groff pic(1) has a buffer overrun in argument handling. The problem could be remotely exploited depending on the lpd(8) setup. 2. Vulnerable Supported Versions System Package ---------------------------------------------------------------------- OpenLinux 3.1.1 Server prior to groff-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-dvi-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-gxditview-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-lj4-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-misc-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-ps-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm OpenLinux 3.1.1 Workstation prior to groff-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-dvi-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-gxditview-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-lj4-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-misc-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-ps-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm OpenLinux 3.1 Server prior to groff-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-dvi-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-gxditview-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-lj4-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-misc-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-ps-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm OpenLinux 3.1 Workstation prior to groff-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-dvi-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-gxditview-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-lj4-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-misc-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm prior to groff-ps-1.17.2-3.i386.rpm 3. Solution The proper solution is to install the latest packages. Many customers find it easier to use the Caldera System Updater, called cupdate (or kcupdate under the KDE environment), to update these packages rather than downloading and installing them by hand. 4.
