** Description changed: Binary package hint: gnome-panel - Gnome-panel 2.28.0 restarts or completely blocks the computer (need to turn off by leaving battery). I'm using ubuntu 9.10. + Gnome-panel 2.28.0 restarts or completely blocks the computer (need to turn off by removing battery). I'm using ubuntu 9.10. This happens because gnome-panel doesn't properly check the file .gtk-bookmarks that if specially crafted produces this dos. I've made a proof of concept so you can quickly test this bug. I don't know if this can produce code execution because i don't have time to debug but surely produces this denial of service.
