gzip 1.4 release notes from
http://savannah.gnu.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=6153
gzip -d could segfault and/or clobber the stack, possibly leading to arbitrary code execution.  This affects x86_64 but not 32-bit systems. This fixes CVE-2010-0001. For more details, see http://bugzilla.redhat.com/554418
