Debian - Two Security Advisories:
1. New netkit-telnet packages fix arbitrary code execution [DSA 697-1]
2. New mc packages fix buffer overflow [DSA 698-1]
Detail
======
Security Advisory summaries:
1. iDEFENSE researchers discovered a buffer overflow in the handling of
the LINEMODE suboptions in telnet clients. This can lead to the
execution of arbitrary code when connected to a malicious server.
2. An unfixed buffer overflow has been discovered by Andrew V. Samoilov
in mc, the midnight commander, a file browser and manager. This update
also fixes a regression from DSA 497.
