Description

This issue can only be exploited during the package build and it does not affect users of pre-built packages distributed with Red Hat Enterprise Linux or Fedora. Therefore, we do not plan to backport a fix for this issue to already released version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Additionally, this issue requires an attacker to win a race against build process, with very short time window for successful attack, giving an attacker a low chance of success. |
