Kusano Kazuhiko discovered a buffer overflow vulnerability in the handling of Internationalized Resource Identifiers (IRI) in wget, a network utility to retrieve files from the web, which could result in the execution of arbitrary code or denial of service when recursively downloading from an untrusted server.
For Debian 7 Wheezy, these problems have been fixed in version 1.13.4-3+deb7u7.
We recommend that you upgrade your wget packages.
