Slackware: 2013-350-01: libiodbc Security Update
Summary
Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog: patches/packages/libiodbc-3.52.8-i486-1_slack14.1.txz: Upgraded. This update fixes an rpath pointing to a location in /tmp that was found in two test programs (iodbctest and iodbctestw). This could have allowed a local attacker with write access to /tmp to add modified libraries (and execute arbitrary code) as any user running the test programs. Thanks to Christopher Oliver for the bug report. (* Security fix *)
