Package        : webmin
Vulnerability  : insecure temporary directory
Problem-Type   : root
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CAN-2004-0559

Ludwig Nussel discovered a problem in webmin, a web-based
administration toolkit.  A temporary directory was used but without
checking for the previous owner.  This could allow an attacker to
create the directory and place dangerous symbolic links inside.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.94-7woody3.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.160-1 of webmin and 1.090-1 of usermin.

We recommend that you upgrade your webmin packages.


Upgrade Instructions
- --------------------

wget url
        will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
        will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
        will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
