Bug#738828: cinnamon: CVE-2014-1949

2014-07-19 Thread Fabio Fantoni
Today I spoken in upstream's devel chat about it, this bug is still
present even if not always reproducible.
Affect older cinnamon's debian package and new cinnamon-screensaver.
One user have posted a bad and probably partial fix:
https://github.com/RavetcoFX/cinnamon-screensaver/commit/89150d21004faf63722e6c47af639071de42c6e6
I have some doubts on how to go about it, experts debian's developerscan
give me some advices please?

Thanks for any reply and sorry for my bad english.

After a while checking the issue, we could reproduce the issue installing the
gtk 3.10 and it's solved with gtk 3.12.

Using the packages from snapshots, the problem is reproduceable with gtk
3.10.7 and is fixed in 3.11.5. We haven't yet found the exact fix.

Happy hacking,
