Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory FLSA-2004:1230. Elm is a terminal mode email user agent. The frm command is provided as part of the Elm packages and gives a script_summary( list of the sender and subject of selected messages in a mailbox or folder. A buffer overflow vulnerability was found in the frm command. An attacker could create a message with an overly long Subject line such that when the frm command is run by a victim arbitrary code is executed. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2003-0966 to this issue. Users of the frm command should update to these erratum packages, which contain a backported security patch that corrects this issue. Fedora Legacy would like to thank Paul Rubin for discovering and disclosing this issue, and Jonny Strom for providing a backported fix for Red Hat Linux 7.2 and 7.3.
