Vulnerability  : buffer overflow
Problem type   : remote
Debian-specific: no

It was discovered that PLIB, a library used by TORCS, contains a
buffer overflow in error message processing, which could allow remote
attackers to execute arbitrary code.

For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in
version 1.8.5-5+squeeze1.

For the testing distribution (wheezy) and the unstable distribution
(sid), this problem has been fixed in version 1.8.5-5.1.
