ubuntu-core-launcher (1.0.27.1) xenial-security; urgency=medium
* SECURITY UPDATE: delayed attack snap data theft and privilege escalation
when using Snappy on traditional Ubuntu (classic) systems (LP: #1576699)
- src/main.c: remove glob code and hardcode /snap/ubuntu-core/current
instead. The glob code both used an improper glob and performed an
incorrect check due to a typo which allowed a snap named ubuntu-core-...
to be bind mounted into application runtimes instead of the ubuntu-core
OS snap. Ubuntu Core removed .<origin> and .sideload from the SNAP path
so the glob can simply be dropped.
- CVE-2016-1580
* debian/usr.bin.ubuntu-core-launcher:
- only allow mounting /snap/ubuntu-core/*/... to safeguard against this in
the future
- add lib32 and libx32 to match setup_snappy_os_mounts()
