    Sebastian Krahmer from the SUSE Security Team discovered two off-by-one
    errors in the function 'f_name()' in file sender.c when processing
    overly long directory names.
  
Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to synchronize a repository
    containing specially crafted directories, leading to the execution of
    arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
  
Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time."
