Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2009:047-1

http://www.mandriva.com/security/

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Package : vim

Date : February 24, 2009

Affected: 2008.0

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Problem Description:

 

Python has a variable called sys.path that contains all paths where

Python loads modules by using import scripting procedure. A wrong

handling of that variable enables local attackers to execute arbitrary

code via Python scripting in the current Vim working directory

(CVE-2009-0316).

 

This update provides fix for that vulnerability.

 

Update:

 

This update also provides updated packages for Mandriva Linux 2008.0.
