Insight
Stack-based buffer overflow in the glibtop_get_proc_map_s function in libgtop before 2.14.6 (libgtop2) allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a process with a long filename that is mapped in its address space, which triggers the overflow in gnome-system-monitor.
The updated packages have been patched to correct this problem.
Affected
libgtop2 on Mandriva Linux 2007.0,
Mandriva Linux 2007.0/X86_64
