Package        : perl
Vulnerability  : design flaw
Problem-Type   : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CAN-2005-0448
Debian Bug     : 286905 286922

Paul Szabo discovered another vulnerability in the File::Path::rmtree
function of perl, the popular scripting language.  When a process is
deleting a directory tree, a different user could exploit a race
condition to create setuid binaries in this directory tree, provided
that he already had write permissions in any subdirectory of that
tree.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 5.6.1-8.9.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 5.8.4-8.

We recommend that you upgrade your perl 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.
