|
| 18 |
The GnuPG plugin in kopete before 0.6.2 does not properly cleanse the |
| 19 |
command line when executing gpg, which allows remote attackers to |
| 20 |
execute arbitrary commands. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
SOLUTION |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
It is recommended that all Gentoo Linux users who are running |
| 25 |
net-im/kopete upgrade to kopete-0.6.2 as follows: |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
emerge sync |
| 28 |
emerge kopete |
| 29 |
emerge clean |
