Description Pavel Labushev 2010-01-14 22:55:51 UTC

Directory traversal vulnerability in libtransmission/metainfo.c in Transmission 1.22, 1.34, 1.75, and 1.76 allows remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in a pathname within a .torrent file.

1.77 is a bugfix release, so the ebuild for 1.76 should work for 1.77.
