[DSA797] DSA-797-2 zsync Vulnerability Scan
Vulnerability Scan Summary
DSA-797-2 zsync
Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test
zsync, a file transfer program, includes a modified local copy of
the zlib library, and is vulnerable to certain bugs fixed previously
in the zlib package.
There was a build error for the sarge i386 proftpd packages released in
DSA 797-1. A new build, zsync_0.3.3-1.sarge.1.2, has been prepared to
correct this error. The packages for other architectures are unaffected.
The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain the zsync
package.
For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.3.3-1.sarge.1.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.4.0-2.
We recommend that you upgrade your zsync package.
