Package: yacas
Version: 1.0.57-2.4
Severity: serious
Tags: security

Hello Gopal,
yacas includes a binary with a rpath pointing to /tmp/yacas/usr/bin/yacas.

chrpath /usr/bin/yacas
/usr/bin/yacas: RPATH=/tmp/buildd/yacas-1.0.57/debian/yacas/usr/lib

This allows an attacker with write access to that directory to
add modified libraries which will be loaded when someone
else run yacas.

Cheers,
