[Bug 1925985] Re: CVE-2021-22204

 

Following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/SponsorsQueue , I can now
subscribe ubuntu-security-sponsors :


1. Your patch is in debdiff format

It is.


2. The patch follows the security team update procedures. Especially:

- targeted against the security pocket of a stable release

I think so, but I'm not exactly sure what a "security pocket" is. This
is a patch against 20.04 LTS to fix an arbitrary code execution, so it
seems appropriate.

I've updated the patch to have 'focal-security' as distribution, as
described in
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/UpdatePreparation#Packaging.

- uses the correct version

The version 11.88-1ubuntu1 is created by dch, so I'm assuming it is
correct. (Maybe it should be 11.88-1ubuntu0.1 ?)

- mentions a CVE, and preferably a LP bug #.

The diff mentions CVE-2021-22204 and (LP: #1925985), which is this bug.

- Check your .changes file to make sure that you have the right revision
and distribution

I've put 'focal-security' as distribution, which seemed the most
appropriate.


3. All changes in the patch are intentional

They are.


4. Your patch applies cleanly

It does.


5. The Status and Assignment are correct

I cannot change the status, but it seems OK.


6. Please comment on the testing performed.

I've tested the patched package with echo_vakzz.jpg from
https://hackerone.com/reports/1154542 on a development workstation. (So
not on a clean Ubuntu installation.)


- If all of the above is in order, please subscribe ubuntu-security-sponsors

OK.
