Detail
| Race condition in the rmtree function in the File::Path module in Perl 5.6.1 and 5.8.4 sets read/write permissions for the world, which allows local users to delete arbitrary files and directories, and possibly read files and directories, via a symlink attack. |

| Title: | DSA-1678-1 perl - privilege escalation | ||
| Description: | Paul Szabo rediscovered a vulnerability in the File::Path::rmtree function of Perl. It was possible to exploit a race condition to create setuid binaries in a directory tree or remove arbitrary files when a process is deleting this tree. This issue was originally known as <a href="http://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2005-0448">CVE-2005-0448</a> and <a href="http://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2004-0452">CVE-2004-0452</a>, which were addressed by DSA-696-1 and DSA-620-1. Unfortunately, they were reintroduced later. | ||
