Description:   Opened: 2007-03-14 14:05 0000 
A format string error in the "write_html()" function in calendar/gui/e-
cal-component-memo-preview.c when displaying a memo's categories can
potentially be exploited to execute arbitrary code via a specially
crafted shared memo containing format specifiers.

Thanks for the report, but if we CC the maintainer this will certainly be
better :)

Thank you for report Sune. But I have a question. Where did you get the patch
from? Looking in upstream CVS I found the following commit to fix this issue:

http://svn.gnome.org/viewcvs/evolution/branches/gnome-2-18/calendar/gui/e-cal-component-memo-preview.c?r1=33312&r2=33343

Also ubuntu patch which I got from http://secunia.com/advisories/24651 has the
same fix.

------- Comment #6 From Peter Volkov 2007-04-22 09:50:31 0000 ------- 
This is fixed in >=evolution-2.8.3-r2 which should be stabilized together with
gnome-2.16.3.

------- Comment #7 From Mart Raudsepp 2007-06-02 03:08:32 0000 ------- 
evolution-2.8.3-r2 is stable on all supported arches now.

------- Comment #8 From Raphael Marichez 2007-06-06 21:00:02 0000 -------
