<define-tag description>LTS security update</define-tag>
<define-tag moreinfo>

<p>It was discovered that there was a stack-based buffer overflow when
parsing large GECOS fields in cracklib2, a pro-active password checker
library.</p>


<p>For Debian 8 <q>Jessie</q>, this problem has been fixed in version
2.9.2-1+deb8u1.</p>

<p>We recommend that you upgrade your cracklib2 packages.</p>

<p>Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply
these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be
found at: <a href="https://wiki.debian.org/LTS">https://wiki.debian.org/LTS</a></p>
