Detail
| Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña discovered insecure tmporary file creation in graphviz, a rich set of graph drawing tools, that can be exploited to overwrite arbitrary files by a local attacker. For the old stable distribution (woody) this problem probably persists but the package is non-free. For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 2.2.1-1sarge1. For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 2.2.1-1sarge1. We recommend that you upgrade your graphviz package. |
