Advisories MDKSA-2007:067: Updated file packages fix heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability
Jean-Sebastien Guay-Leroux discovered an integer underflow in the
file_printf() function in file prior to 4.20 that allows user-assisted
attackers to execute arbitrary code via a file that triggers a
heap-based buffer overflow.

Updated packages have been patched to address this issue.
