<description>
|
||
<p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in GNU Emacs:</p>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>When ‘global-ede-mode’ is enabled, EDE in Emacs automatically
|
||
loads a Project.ede file from the project directory (CVE-2012-0035).
|
||
</li>
|
||
<li>When ‘enable-local-variables’’ is set to ‘:safe’, Emacs
|
||
automatically processes eval forms (CVE-2012-3479).
|
||
</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
</description>
|
||
<impact type="normal">
|
||
<p>A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted file,
|
||
possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of
|
||
the process or a Denial of Service condition.
|
||
</p>
|
||
</impact>
|
||
<workaround>
|
||
<p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
|
||
</workaround>
|
||
<resolution>
|
||
<p>All GNU Emacs 24.x users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
|
||
|
||
<code>
|
||
# emerge --sync
|
||
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-editors/emacs-24.1-r1"
|
||
</code>
|
||
|
||
<p>All GNU Emacs 23.x users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
|
||
|
||
<code>
|
||
# emerge --sync
|
||
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-editors/emacs-23.4-r4"
|

</code>
