Advisories MDVSA-2008:032: Updated boost packages fix DoS vulnerabilities
Tavis Ormandy and Will Drewry found that the bost library did not
properly perform input validation on regular expressions. An attacker
could exploit this by sening a specially crafted regular expression
to an application linked against boost and cause a denial of service
via an application crash.
The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.
