Title:
  Shell Command injection in ufw_backend.py

Status in Gufw:
  Fix Released
Status in gui-ufw package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Firewall Administrators can be tricked by someone to export a profile
  with Gufw to an special crafted file or path name wich contains shell
  code.

  reason is this line in ufw_backend.py :

  def export_profile(self, profile, file):
      commands.getstatusoutput('cp /etc/gufw/' + profile + '.profile ' + file + ' ; chmod 777 ' + file)

  The rename and delete funktions are also unsave if profile name
  contains shell code, like semicolons.
