This bug was fixed in the package apport - 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.22
---------------
apport (2.20.1-0ubuntu2.22) xenial-security; urgency=medium
[ Michael Hudson-Doyle ]
* SECURITY REGRESSION: fix autopkgtest failures since recent security
update (LP: #1854237)
- Fix regression in creating report for crashing setuid process by getting
kernel to tell us the executable path rather than reading
/proc/[pid]/exe.
- Fix deletion of partially written core files.
- Fix test_get_logind_session to use new API.
- Restore add_proc_info raising ValueError for a dead process.
- Delete test_lock_symlink, no longer applicable now that the lock is
created in a directory only root can write to.
[ Tiago Stürmer Daitx ]
* SECURITY REGRESSION: 'module' object has no attribute 'O_PATH'
(LP: #1851806)
- apport/report.py, apport/ui.py: use file descriptors for /proc/pid
directory access only when running under python 3; prevent reading /proc
maps under python 2 as it does not provide a secure way to do so; use
io.open for better compatibility between python 2 and 3.
* data/apport: fix number of arguments passed through socks into a container.
* test/test_report.py: test login session with both pid and proc_pid_fd.
* test/test_apport_valgrind.py: skip test_sandbox_cache_options if system
has little memory.
* test/test_ui.py: modify run_crash_kernel test to account for the fact that
linux-image-$kvers-$flavor is now built from the linux-signed source
package on amd64 and ppc64el. (LP: #1766740)
