Description Josh Bressers 2004-11-19 16:42:35 UTC

On September 10th 2004, Trustix shared some temporary file
vulnerabilities with vendor-sec.  After some refinement these were
made public on Sep30.  These are minor issues (impact: LOW) and
therefore should be fixed in future updates, but don't deserve their
own security advisory.

Temporary file vulnerability in espgs pj-gs.sh, ps2epsi, pv.sh,
sysvlp.sh scripts.  Patch attached.

See bug 136321 for addional information.

This bug is basically a tracking bug for the security team.

Comment 8 Josh Bressers 2007-09-07 15:46:28 UTC

This flaw has been rated as having a low severity by the Red Hat Security
Response Team.  More information about this rating can be found here:
http://www.redhat.com/security/updates/classification/

The risks associated with fixing this bug are greater than the low severity
security risk. We therefore currently have no plans to fix this flaw in Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 2.1 which is in maintenance mode.

If you believe this judgement to be in error, please reopen this bug with an
appropriate comment.
