-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Debian Security Advisory DSA-1526-1 security@debian.org http://www.debian.org/security/ Steve Kemp March 20, 2008 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Package : xwine Vulnerability : various Problem type : local Debian-specific: no CVE Id(s) : CVE-2008-0930 CVE-2008-0931 Steve Kemp from the Debian Security Audit project discovered several local vulnerabilities have been discovered in xwine, a graphical user interface for the WINE emulator. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CVE-2008-0930 The xwine command makes unsafe use of local temporary files when printing. This could allow the removal of arbitrary files belonging to users who invoke the program. CVE-2008-0931 The xwine command changes the permissions of the global WINE configuration file such that it is world-writable. This could allow local users to edit it such that arbitrary commands could be executed whenever any local user executed a program under WINE. For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.1-1etch1. We recommend that you upgrade your xwine package.
