[Bug 1758699] Re: [CVE] JavaScript in a book can access local files using XMLHttpRequest

 

I have uploaded these fixes (for Xenial and Trusty) to a fresh test PPA
of mine with all architectures switched on and only the security repo
enabled. I then tested both in VMs of each release, and they work as
intended. It also fixes the security issue.

Security Team, feel free to copy my packages to your PPA:

https://launchpad.net/~tsimonq2/+archive/ubuntu/security-test-builds/+sourcepub/8878706/+listing-archive-extra

The diffs for each are on that page if you would like to do it manually.

Please sponsor each to go into Ubuntu.

Thanks.
