language-selector 0.33 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

language-selector (0.33) natty; urgency=low

  * dbus_backend/ls-dbus-backend: Actually look at the PolicyKit check result
    and only proceed if it succeeded. Thanks to Romain Perier for finding this
    and providing the patch! This fixes a local root privilege escalation, as
    this allows any authenticated user to write arbitrary shell commands into
    /etc/default/locale. (LP: #764397) [CVE-2011-0729]
  * dbus_backend/ls-dbus-backend: Reject locale names with invalid characters
    in it, to further prevent injecting shell code into /etc/default/locale
    for authenticated users. Thanks to Felix Geyer for the initial patch!
    (LP: #764397)
  * dbus_backend/com.ubuntu.LanguageSelector.conf: Allow access to standard
    D-BUS introspection and properties interfaces. There's no reason to deny
    it, and it causes warnings.
  * debian/language-selector-common.postinst: Stop running D-BUS backend on
    upgrade.
