This could be exploited by an attacker by tricking someone into viewing a specially crafted image using xloadimage which would allow him to execute arbitrary code. This problem was fixed in version 4.1-5potato1. wget url will fetch the file for you dpkg -i file.deb will install the referenced file. Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 alias potato - --------------------------------- Potato was released for alpha, arm, i386, m68k, powerpc and sparc.
