CVE-2006-6979

Publication date 8 February 2007

Ubuntu priority

Unknown

Why this priority?

The ruby handlers in the Magnatune component in Amarok do not properly quote text in certain contexts, probably including construction of an unzip command line, which allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters.
