Description Alex Legler (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2009-12-03 08:59:54 UTC
CVE-2009-3736 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-3736):
  ltdl.c in libltdl in GNU Libtool 1.5.x, and 2.2.6 before 2.2.6b,
  attempts to open a .la file in the current working directory, which
  allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse file.

Forgot to ask... base-system: can we go stable with 2.2.6b?
Comment 2 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2009-12-06 00:01:30 UTC
i'm not aware of any regressions that would prevent stabilization
