+ TIN is a threaded NNTP and spool based UseNet newsreader for a variety + of platforms. +

+
+ +

+ Urs Janssen and Aleksey Salow have reported multiple buffer overflows + in TIN. Additionally, the OpenPKG project has reported an allocation + off-by-one flaw which can lead to a buffer overflow. +

+
+ +

+ An attacker could entice a TIN user to read a specially crafted news + article, and execute arbitrary code with the rights of the user running + TIN. +

+
+ +

+ There is no known workaround at this time. +

+
+ +

+ All TIN users should upgrade to the latest version: +
