Public bug reported: Binary package hint: apt-listchanges
References: DSA-1465-2 (http://www.debian.org/security/2008/dsa-1465) Quoting: "Felipe Sateler discovered that apt-listchanges, a package change history notification tool, used unsafe paths when importing its python libraries. This could allow the execution of arbitary shell commands if the root user executed the command in a directory which other local users may write to." Unfortunately the referenced CVE-2008-0302 from DSA-1465-2 doesn't exist, possible typo? ** Affects: apt-listchanges (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Visibility changed to: Public -- [apt-listchanges] [DSA-1465-2] programming error https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/183967 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
