Description Josh Bressers 2005-04-14 20:44:24 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #154920 +++

crontab in Vixie cron 4.1, when running with the -e option, allows local users
to read the cron files of other users by changing the file being edited to a
symlink.  NOTE: there is insufficient information to know whether this is a
duplicate of CVE-2001-0235.
