Hi Sebastian,

Can someone assign a CVE id for a buffer overflow in coreutils?
Its the same code snippet (coreutils-i18n.patch) and it affects sort, uniq and join:

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=798538
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=796243
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=798541

Could you send the faulty patch to the list so that distros can validate
that they don't include it themselves?

Cheers,
        Moritz
