Hi, colord did not quote user supplied strings which made it prone to SQL injections: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42904 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=698250
Just to have this one sorted out wrt to the patches, the relevant upstream patches are these two:[1] http://gitorious.org/colord/master/commit/1fadd90afcb4bbc47513466ee9bb1e4a8632ac3b [2] http://gitorious.org/colord/master/commit/36549e0ed255e7dfa7852d08a75dd5f00cbd270e
right? Thank you && Regards, Jan. -- Jan iankko Lieskovsky / Red Hat Security Response Team
When colord runs as root and local active users are allowed to create new devices (both are the defaults AFAIK) this allows not only to corrupt colord's own database but also to leverage it to modify other databases in the system (PackageKit for example also uses sqlite). PoC available on request. cu Ludwig
