=====
Two Mandriva Linux Security Update Advisories:
1. MDKSA-2005:101 - tcpdump
2. MDKSA-2005:102 - gedit
Detail
======
1. A Denial of Service vulnerability was found in tcpdump during the
processing of certain network packages. Because of this flaw, it was
possible for an attacker to inject a carefully crafted packet onto the
network which would crash a running tcpdump session.
2. A vulnerability was discovered in gEdit where it was possible for an
attacker to create a file with a carefully crafted name which, when
opened, executed arbitrary code on the victim's computer. It is
highly unlikely that a user would open such a file, due to the file
name, but could possibly be tricked into opening it.

Package name: tcpdump
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2005:101
Date: June 15th, 2005
Affected versions: 10.1, 10.2
______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
A Denial of Service vulnerability was found in tcpdump during the
processing of certain network packages. Because of this flaw, it was
possible for an attacker to inject a carefully crafted packet onto the
network which would crash a running tcpdump session.
The updated packages have been patched to correct this problem. This
problem does not affect at least tcpdump 3.8.1 and earlier.
