|
|
Tavis Ormandy of the Gentoo Linux Security Team discovered an integer
|
|
overflow in the ELF parser, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow.
|
|
The vendor has reported that an unrelated buffer overflow has been
|
|
discovered in the PE parser.

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
Successful exploitation would require the victim to open a specially
|
|
crafted file using HT, potentially permitting an attacker to execute
|
|
arbitrary code.

</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All hteditor users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-editors/hteditor-0.8.0-r2"</code>
