----- Original Message -----

The tftp-hpa daemon contained a buffer overflow vulnerability in the
function for setting the utimeout option. As the daemon accepts this
option from clients, the buffer overflow can be remotely exploited.

For a patch, see

git clone http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/tftp/tftp-hpa.git/
git diff 2864 f303


Here is the gitweb URL for that patch:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=network/tftp/tftp-hpa.git;a=commitdiff;h=f3035c45bc50bb5cac87ca01e7ef6a12485184f8

Please use CVE-2011-2199.

Thanks.
