Package: libmagics++-dev
Version: 2.10.0.dfsg-4
Severity: important
Tags: security
User: [email protected]
Usertags: ldpath

Hello,

During a review of the Debian archive, I've found your package to
contain a script that can be abused by an attacker to execute arbitrary
code.

The vulnerability is introduced by an insecure change to
LD_LIBRARY_PATH, an environment variable used by ld.so(8) to look for
libraries on a directory other than the standard paths.

Vulnerable code follows:

/usr/bin/magics-config line 105:
                echo "   export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${prefix}/lib:\$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"

When there's an empty item on the colon-separated list of
LD_LIBRARY_PATH, ld.so treats it as '.' (i.e. CWD/$PWD.)
If the given script is executed from a directory where a potential,
local, attacker can write files to, there's a chance to exploit this
bug.

While magics-config itself is not vulnerable, the generated code is.

This vulnerability has been assigned the CVE id CVE-2010-3393. Please make sure
you mention it when forwarding this report to upstream and when fixing
this bug (everywhere: upstream and here at Debian.)
