Secure testing team - Apr 2010 - Bug#577014: Several security issues

Package: abcm2ps
Severity: grave
Tags: security

Hi,
the following was reported to the oss-security mailing list:

  Abcm2ps upstream has released:
    [1] http://moinejf.free.fr/
    [2] http://moinejf.free.fr/abcm2ps-5.9.12.tar.gz

  latest v5.9.12 version, addressing
  "some security vulnerabilities"
    [3] http://moinejf.free.fr/abcm2ps-5.txt

  References:

This doesn''t warrant a DSA, but it would be nice if you would fix this
through a point update.

Cheers,
        Moritz
