Hylafax is a software package designed to handle the transmission of Faxes.

A buffer overflow has been reported in some versions of Hylafax. A malicious fax transmission may include a long scan line that will overflow a memory buffer, corrupting adjacent memory. Exploitation may result in a denial of service condition, or possibly the execution of arbitrary code with root privileges.
