Debian Security Advisory DSA 843-1 [email protected]

October 5th, 2005 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : arc
Vulnerability : insecure temporary file
Problem type : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CAN-2005-2945 CAN-2005-2992
Two vulnerabilities have been discovered in the ARC archive program
under Unix. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
identifies the following problems:
CAN-2005-2945
Eric Romang discovered that the ARC archive program under Unix
creates a temporary file with insecure permissions which may lead
to an attacker stealing sensitive information.
CAN-2005-2992
Joey Schulze discovered that the temporary file was created in an
insecure fashion as well, leaving it open to a classic symlink
attack.
The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain arc packages.
For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in
version 5.21l-1sarge1.
For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in
version 5.21m-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your arc package.
