ist'n this like spam ......i guess blindly forwarding these security
notifications and creating unnecessary mailing list traffic (an apt
update or yum will automatically solve this issue)

Debian Security Advisory DSA 859-1                     [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Package        : xli
Vulnerability  : buffer overflows
Problem type   : local (remote)
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CAN-2005-3178
Debian Bug     : 332524

Ariel Berkman discovered several buffer overflows in xloadimage, which
are also present in xli, a command line utility for viewing images in
X11, and could be exploited via large image titles and cause the
execution of arbitrary code.

For the old stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in
version 1.17.0-11woody2.

For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in
version 1.17.0-18sarge1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your xli package.
