Mandrakelinux Security Update Advisory
_______________________________________________________________________
Package name: gzip
Advisory ID: MDKSA-2004:142
Date: December 6th, 2004
Affected versions: 10.0, 10.1, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1,
Multi Network Firewall 8.2
______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
The Trustix developers found some insecure temporary file creation
problems in the zdiff, znew, and gzeze supplemental scripts in the
gzip package. These flaws could allow local users to overwrite files
via a symlink attack.
A similar problem was fixed last year (CAN-2003-0367) in which this
same problem was found in znew. At that time, Mandrakesoft also used
mktemp to correct the problems in gzexe. This update uses mktemp to
handle temporary files in the zdiff script.
