In util-linux before 2.32-rc1, bash-completion/umount allows local users to gain privileges by embedding shell commands in a mountpoint name, which is mishandled during a umount command (within Bash) by a different user, as demonstrated by logging in as root and entering umount followed by a tab character for autocompletion.

Since the update to 0.3.9 (or the update of girara to 0.2.9), zathura-pdf-poppler returns the following error:

error: Could not load plugin '/usr/lib/zathura/ps.so' (libgirara-gtk3.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory).

Description:

• Segmentation fault after start by terminal emulator but elinks does not crash in console. After that, it prints characters when mouse buttons pressed so it can not copy its output.

Additional info:
* package version(s)

• links 2.14-2
• elinks 0.13-18

* config and/or log files etc.

• gdb output for links 2.16:

Steps to reproduce:

• Run links and elinks by terminal emulator

Description:

Apache web server shall be running with or without the external network, and without NetworkManager.

rc-service httpd start

will give the message that NetworkManager must be started first, and will not start apache web server. I cannot find in which file is that written.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Disconnect network. Start computer.

2. Try to start apache with above command.

That makes no sense, as Apache can run on local network without NetworkManager and it is not written in the description.

Description:

• In VideoLAN VLC media player through 2.2.8, there is a type conversion vulnerability in modules/demux/mp4/libmp4.c in the MP4 demux module leading to a invalid free, because the type of a box may be changed between a read operation and a free operation.

• None

Steps to reproduce:

• Run VLC

Description:

• VideoLAN VLC media player 2.2.x is prone to a use after free vulnerability which an attacker can leverage to execute arbitrary code via crafted MKV files. Failed exploit attempts will likely result in denial of service conditions.

Octopi 0.9.0 is uploading system logs to ptpb.pw without confirmation through :

Tools
→ SysInfo → ptpb.pw

I think it should be either disabled or add at least a patch to ask for a confirmation.
An other way could be to patch this :

src/globals.cpp
240: * Generates SysInfo file and paste it to ptpb site
255:  QString ptpb = UnixCommand::getCommandOutput("curl -F c=@- https://ptpb.pw/?u=1", tempFile->fileName());
256:  return ptpb;

to :

src/globals.cpp
240: * Generates SysInfo file and paste it to ptpb site
255:  QString ptpb = UnixCommand::getCommandOutput("curl -F c=@- **https://ptpb.pw/", tempFile->fileName());
256:  return ptpb;

This way, you can at least ask for log deletion with the help of log uuid as explained here : https://ptpb.pw/#id10

Description:
As stated on the home page of the project (https://qtpass.org/):
<quote>
All passwords generated with QtPass’ built-in password generator prior to 1.2.1 are possibly predictable and enumerable by hackers.
</quote>

When running QtEmu for the first time and running the new machine wizard, the software lists non-free operating systems and refers to GNU/Linux as Linux.

It would be nice to list LibertyBSD in the list of distros in this software in addition to GNU/Linux and GNU/Hurd (which are listed in aqemu).

Description:

A memory leak bug was discovered in Toxcore that can be triggered remotely to exhaust one’s system memory, resulting in a denial of service attack... As a general reminder, if you are still using irungentoo’s toxcore, we strongly encourage you to switch to using TokTok c-toxcore instead as it’s a lot more actively developed and maintained. In fact, irungentoo’s toxcore is neither being developed nor maintained for some time now, aside from merging only the most critical fixes from TokTok c-toxcore from time to time, missing all other important fixes.

Additional info:
* package version(s): < 2.8

The bug is fixed in TokTok c-toxcore v0.2.8. The bug is also fixed in the master branch of irungentoo’s toxcore, in commit bf69b54f64003d160d759068f4816b2d9b2e1e21. As a general reminder, if you are still using irungentoo’s toxcore, we strongly encourage you to switch to using TokTok c-toxcore instead as it’s a lot more actively developed and maintained.

Description:
libssh versions 0.6 and above have an authentication bypass vulnerability in
the server code. By presenting the server an SSH2_MSG_USERAUTH_SUCCESS message
in place of the SSH2_MSG_USERAUTH_REQUEST message which the server would expect
to initiate authentication, the attacker could successfully authentciate
without any credentials.

Additional info:

Description:
pip allows the user to search and install packages from the PyPi repository, which contains proprietary software.

Additional info:
* example of proprietary package in PyPi repository: https://pypi.org/project/snaplogic * Trisquel’s solution was to remove python-pip: https://trisquel.info/en/issues/3741

Steps to reproduce:
$ sudo pacman -S python-pip
$ pip search snaplogic # prints information about proprietary package
$ pip install snaplogic # installs proprietary package

Please remove as plugin is only useful with Skype hosted by a single company on a single server as far as I can tell (unlike pidgin-sipe).

Description:

• Arch distributes a version of man-pages with manual pages from the POSIX standard. The man-pages project is permitted to distribute them and Andries Brouwer assumes that re-distribution by vendors is permitted as well. However, modification is definitively not allowed, hence this contribution by The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers and The Open Group render the entire man-pages package nonfree. The way to solve it is remove all nonfree POSIX manual pages from man-pages package.
