Chris Rohlf discovered that the "Gtk::MessageDialog.new()" method in |
46 |
the file gtk/src/rbgtkmessagedialog.c does not properly sanitize the |
47 |
"message" parameter before passing it to the gtk_message_dialog_new() |
48 |
function. |

A remote attacker could send a specially crafted string to an |
54 |
application using Ruby-GNOME2, possibly leading to the execution of |
55 |
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application. |
