Synopsis ========
Tomboy doesn't properly handle environment variables, potentially allowing a local attacker to execute arbitrary code.
Background ==========
Tomboy is a GTK-based desktop note-taking application written in C# and the Mono C#.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 app-misc/tomboy < 0.8.1-r1 >= 0.8.1-r1
Description ===========
Jan Oravec reported that the "/usr/bin/tomboy" script sets the "LD_LIBRARY_PATH" environment variable incorrectly, which might result in the current working directory (.) to be included when searching for dynamically linked libraries of the Mono Runtime application.
Impact ======
A local attacker could entice a user into running Tomboy in a directory containing a specially crafted library file to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Tomboy.
Workaround ==========
Do not run Tomboy from an untrusted working directory.
Resolution ==========
All Tomboy users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-misc/tomboy-0.8.1-r1"
