Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:176
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________

Package : mtr
Date : August 20, 2008
Affected: Corporate 4.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

A stack-based buffer overflow was found in mtr prior to version 0.73
that allowed remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted
DNS PTR record, when called with the --split option (CVE-2008-2357).

The updated packages provide mtr 0.73 which corrects this issue.
