Title:DSA-1817 ctorrent -- stack-based buffer overflow
Description:Michael Brooks discovered that ctorrent, a text-mode bittorrent client, does not verify the length of file paths in torrent files. An attacker can exploit this via a crafted torrent that contains a long file path to execute arbitrary code with the rights of the user opening the file. The oldstable distribution (etch) does not contain ctorrent.
