 desc = 'The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200502-24
(Midnight Commander: Multiple vulnerabilities)


    Midnight Commander contains several format string vulnerabilities
    (CAN-2004-1004), buffer overflows (CAN-2004-1005), a memory
    deallocation error (CAN-2004-1092) and a buffer underflow
    (CAN-2004-1176).
  
Impact

    An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to execute
    arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running Midnight
    Commander or cause Denial of Service by freeing unallocated memory.
  
Workaround

    There is no known workaround at this time.

Solution: 
    All Midnight Commander users should upgrade to the latest version:
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-misc/mc-4.6.0-r13"
  

Risk factor : Medium
