We have received a report that former versions of libtermcap contained
an exploitable buffer overflow.  Debian itself is not exploitable by
this bug since termcap was abandoned in favour of terminfo long ago.
However, if you have compiled your own programs using termcap or have
installed third party programs that depend on libtermcap and run as
root they are exploitable.

We recommend you upgrade your termcap-compat package immediately.

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