CAN-2005-0098
Erik Sjolund discovered several buffer overflows in the command line handling, which could lead to the execution of arbitrary code with elevated privileges since it is installed setuid root.
CAN-2005-0099
Steve Kemp discovered that abuse creates some files without dropping privileges first, which may lead to the creation and overwriting of arbitrary files.
For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 2.00+-3woody4.
The unstable distribution (sid) does not contain an abuse package anymore.
We recommend that you upgrade your abuse package.");
