The Dia drawing program is designed to draw various types of diagrams.
Several format string flaws were found in the way dia displays certain

carefully crafted file, it may be possible to execute arbitrary code as the
user running Dia. (CVE-2006-2453, CVE-2006-2480)
Users of Dia should update to these erratum packages, which contain
backported patches and are not vulnerable to these issues.
4. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
