Ubuntu Security Notice USN-4170-1
October 30, 2019

whoopsie vulnerability
==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 19.10
- Ubuntu 19.04
- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

Summary:

Whoopsie could be made to crash, expose sensitive information or run
programs if it processed a specially crafted crash report.

Software Description:
- whoopsie: Ubuntu error tracker submission

Details:

Kevin Backhouse discovered Whoopsie incorrectly handled very large crash
reports. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial
of service, expose sensitive information or execute code as the whoopsie
user.

package versions:
