Title:	Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-1281-1)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'advancecomp' package(s) announced via the DLA-1281-1 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'advancecomp' package(s) announced via the DLA-1281-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Joonun Jang discovered that the advzip tool in advancecomp, a collection of recompression utilities, was prone to a heap-based buffer overflow. This might allow an attacker to cause a denial-of-service (application crash) or other unspecified impact via a crafted file. For Debian 7 Wheezy, these problems have been fixed in version 1.15-1+deb7u1. We recommend that you upgrade your advancecomp packages.

Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 6.8 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
