Description: 
 gdb        - The GNU Debugger
Changes: 
 gdb (6.4.90.dfsg-1ubuntu3) edgy; urgency=low
 .
   * SECURITY UPDATE: fix local arbitrary code execution in DWARF processing.
   * Add 'dwarf2-stack-boundry.diff': limits the DWARF operation stack.
     Without this, arbitrary code execution would be possible if a user
     were tricked into debugging an executable with malicious DWARF headers.
   * References:
     CVE-2006-4146
