Mandriva Advisories MDKSA-2006:107 : arts

 

Updated arts packages fix vulnerability in artswrapper

June 20th, 2006

 

A vulnerability in the artswrapper program, when installed setuid root,

 

could enable a local user to elevate their privileges to that of root.

 

 

 

By default, Mandriva Linux does not ship artswrapper setuid root,

 

however if a user or system administrator enables the setuid bit on

 

artswrapper, their system could be at risk,

 

 

 

The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.

 

 

The released versions of Mandriva GNU/Linux affected are:

  • CS3.0
  • 2006.0
