Package        : zaptel
Vulnerability  : array index error
Problem type   : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s)      : CVE-2008-5396 CVE-2008-5744
Debian Bug     : 507459 510583

An array index error in zaptel, a set of drivers for telephony hardware,
could allow users to crash the system or escalate their privileges by
overwriting kernel memory (CVE-2008-5396).

For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version
1.2.11.dfsg-1+etch1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) and the testing distribution
(lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 1.4.11~dfsg-3.

We recommend that you upgrade your zaptel package.

Upgrade instructions
- --------------------

wget url
        will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
        will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
        will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
