amd64 stable CVE-2010-2192 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-2192): The make_lockdir_name function in policy.c in pmount 0.9.18 allow local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a file in /var/lock/. Builds fine on x86. Rdeps build against it without any problem. Able to start ivman and detects pmount while starting. alpha/arm/ia64/sh/sparc/x86 stable, thanks Myckel Stable for HPPA. ppc64 stable ppc stable glsa request filed. Ping. Is this thing alive? This issue was resolved and addressed in GLSA 201412-08 at http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-201412-08.xml by GLSA coordinator Sean Amoss (ackle). |
