Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2010-3364 to
the following vulnerability:

The vips-7.22 script in VIPS 7.22.2 places a zero-length directory
name in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, which allows local users to gain
privileges via a Trojan horse shared library in the current working
directory.

Affected versions:
=================
This issue affects the versions of the vips package, as shipped with
Fedora of release:
1, 12. Relevant script is in BUILD/vips-7.18.2/src/scripts/vips-7.18
   Affected code line being:

     108         export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$VIPSHOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

2, 13. Relevant script is in BUILD/vips-7.20.7/tools/scripts/vips-7.20
   Affected code line being:

     108         export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$VIPSHOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

   The above used re-setting of LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is insecure.

Tomas Hoger suggests (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=638384#c2)
the following one-liner as a solution:

  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/foo${LD_LIBRARY_PATH:+:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH}

You can also query Red Hat Bugzilla system for "insecure library loading 
vulnerability" string, to get further information about all affected packages
and particular patches.

F-14 and F-15 pre-versions of vips (vips-7.22.2-1.fc14.2 and vips-7.22.2-3.fc15)
are affected by this deficiency too, just the particular vulnerable script has
different name and location.
