50 | <impact type="normal"> |
51 | <p> |
52 | A local attacker could entice a user to run the Eye of GNOME from a |
53 | directory containing a specially crafted python module, resulting in |
54 | the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running |
55 | the application. |
56 | </p> |
57 | </impact> |
58 | <workaround> |
59 | <p> |
60 | Do not run "eog" from untrusted working directories. |
61 | </p> |
62 | </workaround> |
63 | <resolution> |
64 | <p> |
65 | All Eye of GNOME users should upgrade to the latest version: |
66 | </p> |
67 | <code> |
68 | # emerge --sync |
69 | # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-gfx/eog-2.22.3-r3"</code> |
