{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2005-1686","details":"Format string vulnerability in gedit 2.10.2 may allow attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a bin file with format string specifiers in the filename.  NOTE: while this issue is triggered on the command line by the gedit user, it has been reported that web browsers and email clients could be configured to provide a file name as an argument to gedit, so there is a valid attack that crosses security boundaries.","modified":"2026-09-08T06:47:32.041226511Z","published":"2005-05-20T04:00:00Z","upstream":["CVE-2005-1686"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2005-1686"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"gedit","ecosystem":"Debian:12","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/gedit?arch=source&distro=bookworm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"2.10.3-1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"low"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2005-1686.json"}},{"package":{"name":"gedit","ecosystem":"Debian:13","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/gedit?arch=source&distro=trixie"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"2.10.3-1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"low"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2005-1686.json"}},{"package":{"name":"gedit","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/gedit?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"2.10.3-1"}]}],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"low"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2005-1686.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
