Changelog
ncurses (6.4-3) unstable; urgency=medium
* Configure with "--disable-root-environ" to disallow loading of
custom terminfo entries in setuid/setgid programs, mitigating the
impact of CVE-2023-29491 (see #1034372).
- Update the symbols files for the newly exported symbol
_nc_env_access.
- New patch fix-configure-root-args-option.diff cherry-picked from
the 20230415 patchlevel, fixing a copy/paste error which caused
the "--disable-root-environ" configure option to pick up code
meant to be used by the "--disable-root-args" option instead.
- New patch debian-env-access.diff, changing the behavior of the
"--disable-root-environ" configure option to not restrict programs
run by the superuser, equivalent to the "--disable-setuid-environ"
option introduced in the 20230423 patchlevel.
