Class: PATCH | Family: unix |
Some vulnerabilities were discovered and corrected in perl-MDK-Common: The functions used to write strings into shell like configuration files by Mandriva tools were not taking care of some special characters. This could lead to some bugs , and privilege escalation. This update fixes that issue by ensuring proper protection of strings. The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
