James Vega reported an untrusted search path vulnerability in the
|
|
GObject Python interpreter wrapper in Gnumeric.

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A local attacker could entice a user to run Gnumeric from a directory
|
|
containing a specially crafted python module, resulting in the
|
|
execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running
|
|
Gnumeric.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Do not run "gnumeric" from untrusted working directories.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All Gnumeric users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-office/gnumeric-1.8.4-r1"</code>
|
|
</resolution>
