    Package : c-ares
    CVE ID : CVE-2016-5180
    Debian Bug : 839151

    Gzob Qq discovered that the query-building functions in c-ares, an
    asynchronous DNS request library would not correctly process crafted
    query names, resulting in a heap buffer overflow and potentially
    leading to arbitrary code execution.

    For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.10.0-2+deb8u1.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.12.0-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your c-ares packages.
