- desc = 'Christer â•“berg of Wkit Security AB found a problem in joe
- (Joe\'s Own Editor). joe will look for a configuration file in three locations:
- The current directory, the users homedirectory ($HOME) and in /etc/joe. Since
- the configuration file can define commands joe will run (for example to check
- spelling) reading it from the current directory can be dangerous: An attacker
- can leave a .joerc file in a writable directory, which would be read when a
- unsuspecting user starts joe in that directory.
-
- This has been fixed in version 2.8-15.3 and we recommend that you upgrade
- your joe package immediately.

- Solution : http://www.debian.org/security/2001/dsa-041
