I found a possible format string vulnerability in the source code of chmod chgrp

when "you" did   printf (fmt, file, groupname);
                 or
                   printf (fmt, file, mode & 07777, &perms[1]);

i can't simulate the explotation but.. it is possible.
to patch it i had put it via sprintf into a buffer..

plis reply this email ?
