[security] Debian Security Advisory (xitalk)

[Lorenzo Iannuzzi]

http://www.debian.org/security/

Steve Kemp from the GNU/Linux audit project discovered a problem in
xitalk, a talk intercept utility for the X Window System.  A local
user can exploit this problem and execute arbitrary commands under the
GID utmp.  This could be used by an attacker to remove traces from the
utmp file.
