Description David Lawrence 2005-03-30 23:31:31 UTC
Victor Ashik discovered a heap based buffer overflow in less, caused by a
patch added to the less package in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3. An attacker
could construct a carefully crafted file that could cause less to crash or
possibly execute arbitrary code when opened. The Common Vulnerabilities
and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2005-0086
to this issue.

This issue may be RHEL3 specific. Must be checked.
