USN194-2 : texinfo regression bug fix Vulnerability Scan


Vulnerability Scan Summary
texinfo regression bug fix

Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test

Synopsis :

These remote packages are missing security patches :
- info
- texinfo


Description :

USN-194-1 fixed a vulnerability in the 'texindex' program.
Unfortunately this update introduced a regression that caused the
program to abort when cleaning up temporary files (which are used with
extraordinarily large input files). The updated packages fix this.

Solution :

Upgrade to :
- info-4.7-2.2ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 5.10)
- texinfo-4.7-2.2ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 5.10)



Threat Level: High
