|
|
A remote attacker could entice a user to browse to a specially crafted
|
|
"smb://" URL and execute arbitrary Samba commands, which would allow
|
|
the overwriting of arbitrary local files or the upload or the download
|
|
of arbitrary files. This vulnerability can be exploited only if
|
|
"smbclient" is installed on the victim's computer, which is provided by
|
|
the "samba" Gentoo package.
|
|

<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

</workaround>

<resolution>
|

<p>
|
|
All Links users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-client/links-2.1_pre26"</code>
