Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2009:263

http://www.mandriva.com/security/

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Package : sympa

Date : August 9, 2009

Affected: 2008.1, Corporate 4.0, Enterprise Server 5.0

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Problem Description:

 

A vulnerability has been found and corrected in sympa:

 

sympa.pl in sympa 5.3.4 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary

files via a symlink attack on a temporary file. NOTE: wwsympa.fcgi

was also reported, but the issue occurred in a dead function, so it

is not a vulnerability (CVE-2008-4476).

 

This update fixes this vulnerability.
