Background ========== R is a language and environment for statistical computing and graphics. Affected packages ================= Package Vulnerable Unaffected ---------- ------------ ------------ dev-lang/R < 4.0.4 >= 4.0.4 Description =========== The native R package installation mechanisms do not sufficiently validate installed source packages for path traversal. Impact ====== Installation of a malicious R package could result in an arbitrary file overwrite which could result in arbitrary code execution, as might be seen with the overwrite of an authorized_keys file. Workaround ========== There is no known workaround at this time. Resolution ========== All R users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-lang/R-4.0.4" References ========== [ 1 ] CVE-2020-27637 https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2020-27637 [ 2 ] -fno-common [ 3 ] gcc-10 Availability ============ This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/202401-07 Concerns? ========= Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users' machines is of utmost importance to us.
