| dtchen | envygeeks: the crux is whether you can force ndiswrapper -r to delete a privileged path that you don't have permission to as an unprivileged user | 00:04 |
|---|---|---|
| envygeeks | dtchen: well since ndiswrapper is in perl, I'm submitting a patch to just fix it and submitting it upstream too | 00:05 |
| dtchen | envygeeks: if so, that would be a fairly ominous issue; as it stands, it seems like you're restricted to doing ominous things you're already able to do | 00:05 |
| dtchen | envygeeks: right, it still needs to be fixed | 00:05 |
| envygeeks | dtchen: well the patch will strip anythying that is not a-z0-9 effectively removing any possible code and any ../ I might add in a check to see if the user is also elevated and just flat out reject it if they're not | 00:07 |

| micahg | evfool: FYI, you can set to Fix Released when a package hits the archive, no need to wait until the distro releases | 10:15 |
| evfool | micahg: which bug are you referring to right now? | 10:16 |
| micahg | evfool: bug 529407 | 10:17 |

| evfool | thanx micahg, you're right... I forgot that, usually I check for Oneiric :) my bad | 10:18 |
| micahg | evfool: ah, I thought you were testing 0.3.6 from Oneiric :) | 10:18 |
| evfool | nope, dev PPA and local build from trunk :) | 10:19 |
| micahg | k | 10:19 |
| micahg | evfool: rmadison is your friend :) | 10:19 |
| evfool | micahg: thanks, I'm quite ashamed, I didn't know about that, I have always checked from packages.ubuntu.com or other sites :) so lesson learned for today :) | 10:21 |
| micahg | evfool: no need to be ashamed, everyone can't know everything | 10:22 |
| evfool | micahg: nvm, it's just good to learn the basics :) after more than one year of triaging :) | 10:23 |

| ubot4 | Pici: Stack consumption vulnerability in the fnmatch implementation in apr_fnmatch.c in the Apache Portable Runtime (APR) library before 1.4.3 and the Apache HTTP Server before 2.2.18, and in fnmatch.c in libc in NetBSD 5.1, OpenBSD 4.8, FreeBSD, Apple Mac OS X 10.6, Oracle Solaris 10, and Android, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU and memory consumption) via *? sequences in the first argument, as demonstrat | 13:15 |
| Pici | http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/ is much handier than the cve search in launchpad, thanks to whomever created it. | 13:21 |

| bil21al | is filemanager,dash,and launchpad options are present in ubuntu classic??? if so than any body tell me where | 15:22 |
| charlie-tca | filemanager is nautilus, the thing you open to look at files and folders | 15:26 |
| charlie-tca | dash does not exist in classic, it is a classic gnome session without unity | 15:26 |
| charlie-tca | launchpad options, I don't understand what that means | 15:26 |
| bil21al | ok | 15:29 |
| bil21al | tku bro | 15:29 |
| chewyTree | Is there an easy way to configure workspaces with unity? | 15:43 |
| charlie-tca | You might want to ask support questions in #ubuntu | 15:44 |
| chewyTree | this is related to a bug ;p | 15:44 |
| charlie-tca | A bug that asks that is really a support issue. It should be converted to a question or the reporter referred to proper support channesl | 15:45 |
| chewyTree | charlie-tca, https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/803218 for reference | 15:46 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 803218 in unity "make it easier to change number of workspaces (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] | 15:46 |
| chewyTree | kinda more like a wishlist item | 15:46 |
| charlie-tca | Okay, could be wishlist, but ours is not to provide a support answer, we triage the bugs, not solve most issues | 15:47 |
| chewyTree | imo | 15:47 |
| chewyTree | gotcha | 15:47 |
