Description David Walser 2020-10-13 18:27:25 CEST
Ubuntu has issued an advisory on September 28:
https://ubuntu.com/security/notices/USN-4552-1

The issue is fixed upstream in 1.0.7.

Dan updated this in Cauldron but forgot to file a bug!

Sorry; I had my head down fixing autobuild problems and forgot. I'll take care of getting this into mga7.

Status: NEW => ASSIGNED

Comment 2 Dan Fandrich 2020-10-13 22:02:08 CEST
I looked at the upstream change to fix this issue and found that we already include the relevant line (in load_user_module) in 1.0.6 via the -fedora patchset. So, it looks like Mageia is not vulnerable to this in either mga7 or Cauldron, which is probably why I didn't open a bug. :-)

Status: ASSIGNED => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => INVALID
