http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________
Package : blender
Date : December 8, 2009
Affected: 2008.0
_______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
Python has a variable called sys.path that contains all paths where
Python loads modules by using import scripting procedure. A wrong
handling of that variable enables local attackers to execute arbitrary
code via Python scripting in the current Blender working directory
(CVE-2008-4863).
This update provides fix for that vulnerability.
Update:
Packages for 2008.0 are being provided due to extended support for
Corporate products.
