CVE-2006-0539

Published: 4 February 2006

The convert-fcrontab program in fcron 3.0.0 might allow local users to gain privileges via a long command-line argument, which causes Linux glibc to report heap memory corruption, possibly because a strcpy in the strdup2 function can "overwrite some data."
