Descriptions
Deserialization vulnerability in lintian through 2.5.50.3 allows attackers to trigger code execution by requesting a review of a source package with a crafted YAML file.
Una vulnerabilidad de deserialización en lintian hasta 2.5.50.3 permite a un atacante realizar una ejecución de código solicitando un paquete de fuentes con un archivo YAML manipulado.
Jakub Wilk discovered that lintian incorrectly handled deserializing certain YAML files. If a user or automated system were tricked into running lintian on a specially crafted package, a remote attacker could possibly use this issue to execute arbitrary code.
