<description>
|
|
<p>Tomboy places a zero-length directory name in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, which
|
|
might result in the current working directory (.) to be included when
|
|
searching for dynamically linked libraries.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>NOTE: This vulnerability exists due to an incomplete fix for

|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-misc/tomboy-1.4.2-r1"
