[USN-541-1] Emacs vulnerability

Ubuntu Security Notice USN-541-1          November 13, 2007
emacs22 vulnerability
CVE-2007-5795
Kwetsbare Ubuntu versies:

Ubuntu 7.10

Kwetsbare pakketten:

Ubuntu 7.10
emacs22 22.1-0ubuntu5.1

In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes.

Drake Wilson discovered that Emacs did not correctly handle the safe mode of "enable-local-variables". If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted file while "enable-local-variables" was set to the non-default ":safe", a remote attacker could execute arbitrary commands with the user's privileges.
