An updated ed package that fixes one security issue is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1, 3, 4 and 5.
This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team.
ed is a line-oriented text editor, used to create, display, and modify text files (both interactively and via shell scripts).
A heap-based buffer overflow was discovered in the way ed, the GNU line editor, processed long file names. An attacker could create a file with a specially crafted name that could possibly execute an arbitrary code when opened in the ed editor. (CVE-2008-3916)
Users of ed should upgrade to this updated package, which contains a backported patch to resolve this issue.
