+ gedit is the official text editor of the GNOME desktop environement. +

+
+ +

+ A format string vulnerability exists when opening files with names + containing format specifiers. +

+
+ +

+ A specially crafted file with format specifiers in the filename can + cause arbitrary code execution. +

+
+ +

+ There are no known workarounds at this time. +

+
+ +

+ All gedit users should upgrade to the latest version: +
