Id Description
4890 KTH Kerberos 4 Ticket File Symlink

When the ticket creating process of Kerberos writes temporary files to the /tmp directory, it uses predictable file names. These file names can be anticipated by an attacker who can create a symbolic link utilizing this name. This could enable the attacker to overwrite system files as root, thus causing a Denial of Service.
