Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2009:039
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________
Package : gedit
Date : February 16, 2009
Affected: 2008.1, 2009.0
_______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
Python has a variable called sys.path that contains all paths where
Python loads modules by using import scripting procedure. A wrong
handling of that variable enables local attackers to execute arbitrary
code via Python scripting in the current gedit working directory
(CVE-2009-0314).
This update provides fix for that vulnerability.
