Background ========== Blender is a 3D creation, animation and publishing program. Affected packages ================= ------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 media-gfx/blender < 2.43 >= 2.43 Description =========== Stefan Cornelius of Secunia Research discovered an insecure use of the "eval()" function in kmz_ImportWithMesh.py. Impact ====== A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted Blender file (.kmz or .kml), resulting in the execution of arbitrary Python code with the privileges of the user running Blender. Workaround ========== There is no known workaround at this time. Resolution ========== All Blender users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-gfx/blender-2.43" References ========== [ 1 ] CVE-2007-1253 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-1253 Availability ============ This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-200704-19.xml Concerns? ========= Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users machines is of utmost importance to us.
