package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
ELinks is a text-based Web browser. ELinks does not display any images, but
it does support frames, tables, and most other HTML tags.

An off-by-one buffer overflow flaw was discovered in the way ELinks handled
its internal cache of string representations for HTML special entities. A
remote attacker could use this flaw to create a specially-crafted HTML file
that would cause ELinks to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code when
rendered. (CVE-2008-7224)

It was discovered that ELinks tried to load translation files using
relative paths. A local attacker able to trick a victim into running ELinks
in a folder containing specially-crafted translation files could use this
flaw to confuse the victim via incorrect translations, or cause ELinks to
crash and possibly execute arbitrary code via embedded formatting sequences
in translated messages. (CVE-2007-2027)

All ELinks users are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
contains backported patches to resolve these issues.

Affected Software/OS:
elinks on CentOS 4

Solution:
Please install the updated packages.

CVSS Score:
