Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory

Package name: gtkhtml
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2003:093
Date: September 18th, 2003
Affected versions: 9.0, Corporate Server 2.1

Problem Description:
Alan Cox discovered that certain malformed messages could cause the
Evolution mail component to crash due to a null pointer dereference in
the GtkHTML library, versions prior to 1.1.0.
The updated package provides a patched version of GtkHTML; versions of
Mandrake Linux more recent than 9.0 do not require this fix as they
already come with version 1.1.0.
