44 |
Comix does not properly sanitize filenames containing shell |
45 |
metacharacters when they are passed to the rar, unrar, or jpegtran |
46 |
programs (CVE-2008-1568). Comix also creates directories with |
47 |
predictable names (CVE-2008-1796). |

<impact type="normal"> |
51 |
<p> |
52 |
A remote attacker could exploit the first vulnerability by enticing a |
53 |
user to use Comix to open a file with a specially crafted filename, |
54 |
resulting in the execution of arbitrary commands. The second |
55 |
vulnerability could be exploited by a local attacker to cause a Denial |
56 |
of Service by creating a file or directory with the same filename as |
57 |
the predictable filename used by Comix. |
58 |
</p> |
59 |
</impact> |

<workaround> |
61 |
<p> |
62 |
There is no known workaround at this time. |

<p> |
67 |
All Comix users should upgrade to the latest version: |
