Detail
| A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 11.10 - Ubuntu 11.04 - Ubuntu 10.10 - Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Summary: debdiff, a part of devscripts, could be made to run programs as your login if it opened a specially crafted file. Software Description: - devscripts: scripts to make the life of a Debian Package maintainer easier Details: Paul Wise discovered that debdiff did not properly sanitize its input when processing .dsc and .changes files. If debdiff processed a crafted file, an attacker could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2012-0210) Raphael Geissert discovered that debdiff did not properly sanitize its input when processing source packages. If debdiff processed an original source tarball, with crafted filenames in the top-level directory, an attacker could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2012-0211) Raphael Geissert discovered that debdiff did not properly sanitize its input when processing filename parameters. If debdiff processed a crafted filename parameter, an attacker could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2012-0212) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 11.10: Ubuntu 11.04: Ubuntu 10.10: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS: Ubuntu 8.04 LTS: In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.

| Title: | DSA-2409-1 devscripts -- several | ||
| Description: | Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in debdiff, a script used to compare two Debian packages, which is part of the devscripts package. The following Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project ids have been assigned to identify them: CVE-2012-0210: Paul Wise discovered that due to insufficient input sanitising when processing .dsc and .changes files, it is possible to execute arbitrary code and disclose system information. CVE-2012-0211: Raphael Geissert discovered that it is possible to inject or modify arguments of external commands when processing source packages with specially-named tarballs in the top-level directory of the .orig tarball, allowing arbitrary code execution. CVE-2012-0212: Raphael Geissert discovered that it is possible to inject or modify arguments of external commands when passing as argument to debdiff a specially-named file, allowing arbitrary code execution. | ||
