Description Jan Lieskovsky 2011-03-30 07:19:32 EDT 
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2011-1400 to
the following vulnerability:

The default configuration of the shell_escape_commands directive in
conf/texmf.d/95NonPath.cnf in the tex-common package before 2.08.1 in
Debian GNU/Linux squeeze lists certain programs, which might allow
remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted TeX document.
