Description Nicolas Vigier 2011-11-01 16:52:20 CET 
From Red Hat bugzilla :
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=722694

The capsh program has a --chroot commandline option. Inspecting the code shows
that it does not do a chdir("/") after calling chroot. This means that '.' is
outside the chroot.

Patch available on RH bugzilla.

As there is no maintainer of this package I add the committers in CC.

Is this different from bug 3938 or a duplicate?
Comment 7 Manuel Hiebel 2012-01-02 01:45:00 CET 
Indeed Claire same CVE.

Can somebody from the sysadmin remove libcap-2.19-7.1.mga1.* from 1/core/updates_testing ?

and then you can close as duplicate of bug 3938
thanks
