Description Alex Legler (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2009-09-11 08:23:16 UTC
CVE-2008-7159 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2008-7159):
  The silc_asn1_encoder function in lib/silcasn1/silcasn1_encode.c in
  Secure Internet Live Conferencing (SILC) Toolkit before 1.1.8 allows
  remote attackers to overwrite a stack location and possibly execute
  arbitrary code via a crafted OID value, related to incorrect use of a
  %lu format string.
