Detail

The xmcdconfig creates directories world-writeable allowing local users to fill the /usr and /var partition and hence cause a denial of service. This problem has been half-fixed since version 2.3-1.

For the old stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 2.6-14woody1.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 2.6-17sarge1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 2.6-18.

We recommend that you upgrade your xmcd package.
