gAlan '.galan' File Remote Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
gAlan is prone to a remote buffer-overflow issue because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data.
Successfully exploiting this issue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the user running the application. Failed exploit attempts likely result in denial-of-service conditions.
gAlan 0.2.1 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
