Detail
| A vulnerability was discovered and corrected in gnucash: gnc-test-env in GnuCash 2.3.15 and earlier places a zero-length directory name in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, which allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse shared library in the current working directory (CVE-2010-3999). The affected /usr/bin/gnc-test-env file has been removed to mitigate the CVE-2010-3999 vulnerability as gnc-test-env is only used for tests and while building gnucash. Additionally for Mandriva 2010.1 gnucash-2.2.9 was not compatible with guile. This update adapts gnucash to the new API of guile. |

| 69298 | GnuCash gnc-test-env LD_LIBRARY_PATH Zero-length Directory Name Path Subversi... GnuCash contains a path subversion flaw that may allow an attacker to gain access to unauthorized privileges. The issue is triggered when the 'src/gnc-test-env' script incorrectly sets the environment variable 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH', allowing a context-dependent attacker to gain elevated privileges by tricking a user into running the script in a directory containing a malicious library. |
