Debian DSA-954-1 : wine - design flaw

high Nessus Plugin ID 22820

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

H D Moore has discovered that Wine, a free implementation of the Microsoft Windows APIs, inherits a design flaw from the Windows GDI API, which may lead to the execution of code through GDI escape functions in WMF files.

The old stable distribution (woody) does not seem to be affected by this problem.

Solution

Upgrade the wine packages.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 0.0.20050310-1.2.
