Description Mark J. Cox 2005-06-20 09:36:28 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #157694 +++

Race condition in the rmtree function in File::Path.pm in Perl before 5.8.4
allows local users to create arbitrary setuid binaries in the tree being
deleted, a different vulnerability than CAN-2004-0452.
