apport (2.17.2-0ubuntu1.7) vivid-security; urgency=medium
* test_backend_apt_dpkg.py: Reset internal apt caches between tests. Avoids
random test failures due to leaking paths from previous test cases.
* SECURITY FIX: When determining the path of a Python module for a program
like "python -m module_name", avoid actually importing and running the
module; this could lead to local root privilege escalation. Thanks to
Gabriel Campana for discovering this and the fix!

apport (2.17.2-0ubuntu1.6) vivid-proposed; urgency=medium
* Consistently intercept "report file already exists" errors in all writers of
report files (package_hook, kernel_crashdump, and similar) to avoid
unhandled exceptions on those. (LP: #1500450)
