Descriptions

When GNOME Dia before 2019-11-27 is launched with a filename argument that is not a valid codepoint in the current encoding, it enters an endless loop, thus endlessly writing text to stdout. If this launch is from a thumbnailer service, this output will usually be written to disk via the system's logging facility (potentially with elevated privileges), thus filling up the disk and eventually rendering the system unusable. (The filename can be for a nonexistent file.) NOTE: this does not affect an upstream release, but affects certain Linux distribution packages with version numbers such as 0.97.3.

Cuando GNOME Dia antes del 27-11-2019 es iniciado con un argumento de nombre de archivo que no es una posición de código válida en la codificación actual, ingresa en un bucle sin fin, por lo que escribe texto de forma indefinida en stdout. Si este inicio proviene de un servicio de imágenes miniaturas, esta salida generalmente se escribirá en el disco mediante la capacidad de registro del sistema (potencialmente con privilegios elevados), llenando así el disco y eventualmente renderizando el sistema inutilizable. (El nombre de archivo puede ser para un archivo inexistente). Nota: Esto no afecta a una versión anterior, pero afecta ciertos paquetes de distribución de Linux con números de versión tales como 0.97.3.
