Descriptions

An issue was discovered in Apport through 2.20.x. In apport/report.py, Apport sets the ExecutablePath field and it then uses the path to run package specific hooks without protecting against path traversal. This allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted .crash file.

Fue detectado un problema en Apport hasta la versión 2.20.x. En el archivo apport/report.py, Apport establece el campo ExecutablePath y, a entonces, usa la ruta (path) de acceso para ejecutar enlaces específicos del paquete sin proteger contra el salto de ruta (path) de acceso. Esto permite a los atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario por medio de un archivo .crash creado.
