Description:
man-db - Display the on-line manual.
Changes:
man-db (2.3.10-69i) unstable; urgency=low
.
* In man-db -69i:
* In man-db -69FIX.1:
* Added unlink of temporary file between call to tempnam and open to
reduce (without completely avoiding it) the possibility that a
malicious user puts a dangling symlink to let man leave a file
(with a manpage inside :-) in places different that the temporary
directory. Not a security risk at all, IMO.
* Added secure open of temporary file in zsoelim.l , thanx to
Marc Heuse <marc@suse.de>. The code was not secure against a
symlink attack. This didn't affect 'man', which does not excute
that part of the code, but only manual execution of zsoelim.
