commit c0687bcde23108dd42e146573c368b6905e6b8e8
Author: James McCoy <[email protected]>
Date:   Fri Jul 31 19:56:36 2015 -0400

    licensecheck: Use Dpkg::IPC to run file command
    
    The command being run through `` allowed the shell to interpret the
    given file argument, which allows arbitrary command execution.  Using
    Dpkg::IPC avoids the shell, directly executing file.
    
    Closes: #794260
