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

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Package : eog

Date : March 2, 2009

Affected: 2008.1, 2009.0

Problem Description:

 

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

Python loads modules by using import scripting procedure. A wrong

code via Python scripting in the current eog working directory
