[00:04] <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
[00:05] <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
[00:07] <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

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

[10:18] <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 :)
[10:19] <evfool> nope, dev PPA and local build from trunk :)

[10:19] <micahg> evfool: rmadison is your friend :)
[10:21] <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 :)
[10:22] <micahg> evfool: no need to be ashamed, everyone can't know everything
[10:23] <evfool> micahg: nvm, it's just good to learn the basics :) after more than one year of triaging :)

[13:15] <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
[13:21] <Pici> http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/ is much handier than the cve search in launchpad, thanks to whomever created it.
[13:24] <evfool> how do apps get into the For purchase section of the Software center?
[13:53] <kees> Pici: welcome :)
[15:22] <bil21al> is filemanager,dash,and launchpad options are present in ubuntu classic??? if so than any body tell me where
[15:26] <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
[15:29] <bil21al> ok
[15:29] <bil21al> tku bro
[15:43] <chewyTree> Is there an easy way to configure workspaces with unity?
[15:44] <charlie-tca> You might want to ask support questions in #ubuntu
[15:44] <chewyTree> this is related to a bug ;p
[15:45] <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

[15:46] <chewyTree> kinda more like a wishlist item
[15:47] <charlie-tca> Okay, could be wishlist, but ours is not to provide a support answer, we triage the bugs, not solve most issues
