Package        : joe
Problem type   : local exploit
Debian-specific: no

Christer 肪erg of Wkit Security AB found a problem in joe (Joe's
Own Editor). joe will look for a configuration file in three
locations: the current directory, the users homedirectory ($HOME)
and in /etc/joe. Since the configuration file can define commands
joe will run (for example to check spelling) reading it from
the current directory can be dangerous: an attacker can leave
a .joerc file in a writable directory, which would be read when
a unsuspecting user starts joe in that directory.

This has been fixed in version 2.8-15.3 and we recommend that
you upgrade your joe package immediately.

wget url
        will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.


Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 alias potato
- ---------------------------------

  Potato was released for alpha, arm, i386, m68k, powerpc and sparc.
