Package : zhcon
Vulnerability : missing privilege release
Problem-Type : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CAN-2005-0072

Erik Sjölund discovered that zhcon, a fast console CJK system using
the Linux framebuffer, accesses a user-controlled configuration file
with elevated privileges. Thus, it is possible to read arbitrary
files.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.2-4woody3.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your zhcon package.

Upgrade Instructions
- --------------------

wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
