Package        : bip
Vulnerability  : buffer overflow
Problem type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CVE-2012-0806 
Debian Bug     : 657217

Julien Tinnes reported a buffer overflow in the bip multiuser irc proxy
which may allow arbitrary code execution by remote users.

The oldstable distribution (lenny) is not affected by this problem.

For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
version 0.8.2-1squeeze4.

For the testing distribution (wheezy) and the unstable distribution (sid),
this problem will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your bip packages.
