Package: madwifi
Version: 1:0.9.2+r1842.20061207-1
Severity: critical
Tags: security
Justification: root security hole

According to the upstream advisory
<http://madwifi.org/wiki/news/20061207/release-0-9-2-1-fixes-critical-security-issue>:

"A critical security flaw (CVE-2006-6332) has been discovered which can
be exploited from remote and allows arbitrary code injection. The fix
has been committed to trunk in r1842. In addition, we released
v0.9.2.1 (v0.9.2 plus the fix for the issue), which is available for
download from sf.net."

However, r1842 did *not* completely fix the flaw.  One of the length
checks was wrong and was subsequently fixed in SVN r1847.

Ben.
