[DSA446] DSA-446-1 synaesthesia |
||
DSA-446-1 synaesthesia Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Ulf Härnhammar from the Debian Security Audit Project discovered a vulnerability in synaesthesia, a program which represents sounds visually. synaesthesia created its configuration file while holding root rights, permiting a local user to create files owned by root and writable by the user's primary group. This type of vulnerability can usually be easily exploited to execute arbitrary code with root rights by various means. For the current stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 2.1-2.1woody1. The unstable distribution (sid) is not affected by this problem, because synaesthesia is no longer setuid. We recommend that you update your synaesthesia package.
