Bug Description
Binary package hint: bvi
Package: bvi
Version: 1.3.2-2
Release: Ubuntu 7.10
In case file names, longer than 203 characters are provided to bvi, a stack based overflow occurs. This can be explained due to the fact that multiple times the function sprintf is used with user controlled input.
