Debian Security Advisory DSA 1083-1                    security@debian.org

Package        : motor
Vulnerability  : buffer overflow
Problem type   : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CVE-2005-3863
Debian Bug     : 368400

Mehdi Oudad and Kevin Fernandez discovered a buffer overflow in the
ktools library which is used in motor, an integrated development
environment for C, C++ and Java, which may lead local attackers to
execute arbitrary code.

For the old stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 3.2.2-2woody1.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in
version 3.4.0-2sarge1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 3.4.0-6.

We recommend that you upgrade your motor package.
