COMMAND

    mc

SYSTEMS AFFECTED

    Midnight Commander

PROBLEM

    Michal Zalewski  found following.   Midnight Commander  ftp client
    has  an  overflow  while  reading  server  responses - long enough
    message will result in beautiful overflow.

    Also,  mc  seems  to   have  serious  problems  with   directories
    containing shell commands enclosed in $(...) construction. Bad.

SOLUTION

    Nothing yet.
