Incomplete blacklist vulnerability in the teximg plugin in ikiwiki
before 3.1415926 and 2.x before 2.53.4 allows context-dependent
attackers to read arbitrary files via crafted TeX commands.

Comment 1 Vincent Danen 2009-09-01 03:26:25 UTC
This affects Fedora 11 and also Fedora 10 (I am suspecting the 2.72 version was a development snapshot of 3.x as the latest 2.x on the site is 2.53.4 and I don't see a 2.72 version anywhere).

ikiwiki-3.1415926-1.fc11 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 11.
