CVE-2006-6979 low priority: Debian including 1 source packages (amarok), 3 status rows across 3 suites (forky, sid, trixie): resolved 3.
The ruby handlers in the Magnatune component in Amarok do not properly quote text in certain contexts, probably including construction of an unzip command line, which allows attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters.
