Affected products: Immunix OS 6.2, 7.0-beta, and 7.0
Bugs Fixed:  immunix/1578

Advisory ID:  IMNX-2001-70-017-01

Description:
  Richard Johnson has found a format string problem in the version of
  gftp that ships with Immunix 6.2 and 7.0 (for more information, please
  see http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/82/177241 )

  Normally, printf-style format bugs like this one would be stopped by
  FormatGuard, but FormatGuard is only effective at protecting
  applications that use the printf-like family of functions found in
  glibc.  gftp uses string formatting functions found in GLib (the GTK+
  library, *not* glibc) which bypass FormatGuard protection.

  The following packages fix this problem.
