An error was found in the RPM library’s handling of query reports. In some locales, certain RPM packages would cause the library to crash.
If a user was tricked into querying a specially crafted RPM package, the flaw could be exploited to execute arbitrary code with the user’s privileges.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
