CVE-2006-4484 (2008-10-01)

Buffer overflow in the LWZReadByte_ function in the GD extension in allows remote attackers to have an unknown impact via a GIF file with input_code_size greater than MAX_LWZ_BITS, which triggers an overflow when initializing the table array.

CVE-2007-4769 (2008-01-09)

The regular expression parser in TCL before 8.4.17, as used in PostgreSQL 8.2 before 8.2.6, 8.1 before 8.1.11, 8.0 before 8.0.15, and 7.4 before 7.4.19, allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (backend crash) via an out-of-bounds backref number.

CVE-2007-4772 (2008-01-09)

The regular expression parser in TCL before 8.4.17, as used in PostgreSQL 8.2 before 8.2.6, 8.1 before 8.1.11, 8.0 before 8.0.15, and 7.4 before 7.4.19, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted regular expression.

CVE-2007-6067 (2008-01-09)

Algorithmic complexity vulnerability in the regular expression parser in TCL before 8.4.17, as used in PostgreSQL 8.2 before 8.2.6, 8.1 before 8.1.11, 8.0 before 8.0.15, and 7.4 before 7.4.19, allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a crafted "complex" regular expression with doubly-nested states.

NAME

Tk::Submethods - add aliases for tk sub-commands

SYNOPSIS

use Tk::Submethods ( 'command1' => [qw(sub1 sub2 sub3)],
                     'command2' => [qw(sub1 sub2 sub3)]);

DESCRIPTION

Creates ->commandSub(...) as an alias for ->command('sub',...) e.g. ->grabRelease for ->grab('release').

For each command/subcommand pair this creates a closure with command and subcommand as bound lexical variables and assigns a reference to this to a 'glob' in the callers package.

Someday the sub-commands may be created directly in the C code.
