Python has a variable called sys.path that contains all paths where Python loads modules by using import scripting procedure. A wrong handling of that variable enables local attackers to execute arbitrary code via Python scripting in the current X-Chat working directory (CVE-2009-0315).

This update provides fix for that vulnerability.

Update :

Packages for 2008.0 are provided for Corporate Desktop 2008.0 customers
