    May 22, 2010 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Package : dvipng
    Vulnerability : buffer overflow
    Problem type : remote (local)
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE Id : CVE-2010-0829
    Debian Bug : 580628

    Dan Rosenberg discovered that in dvipng, a utility that converts DVI
    files to PNG graphics, several array index errors allow context-dependent attackers, via a specially crafted DVI file, to cause a denial of
    service (crash of the application), and possibly arbitrary code
    execution.

    For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in
    version dvipng_1.11-1+lenny1.

    For the testing distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.13-1.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.13-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your dvipng package.
