Package: gpsk31 Version: 0.3-1 Severity: normal
There are a buffer overflow in the conf file if just over 19 characters are set to the options like 'name' or 'qth'. For example, if the qth string is longer than 19 chars, the callsign gets overwrited, as follows: - set callsingn = "BBBBB" - set qth = "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" - run the program - go to Send -> MyCall and you'll get AAA instead of the callsign. Other options are susceptible to this bug too. At least, a warning note must be placed in the conf. file example itself. 73s, LU2DFM -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-1-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=es_AR, LC_CTYPE=es_AR (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gpsk31 depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 1.20.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.7-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.4.14-1 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libfontconfig1 2.5.0-2 generic font configuration library ii libgcc1 1:4.3-20080202-1 GCC support library ii libglib2.0-0 2.14.6-1 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.12.8-1 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libpango1.0-0 1.18.4-1 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libstdc++6 4.3-20080202-1 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-7 X11 client-side library ii libxcursor1 1:1.1.9-1 X cursor management library ii libxext6 1:1.0.3-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxfixes3 1:4.0.3-2 X11 miscellaneous 'fixes' extensio ii libxi6 2:1.1.3-1 X11 Input extension library ii libxinerama1 1:1.0.2-1 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxrandr2 2:1.2.2-1 X11 RandR extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.4-1 X Rendering Extension client libra gpsk31 recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
