Package : mon
Vulnerability : insecure temporary files
Problem type : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2008-4477
Debian Bug : 496398
Dmitry E. Oboukhov discovered that the test.alert script used in one of
the alert functions in mon, a system to monitor hosts or services and
alert about problems, creates temporary files insecurely, which may lead
to a local denial of service through symlink attacks.
For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in
version 0.99.2-9+etch2.
For the testing (lenny) and unstable distribution (sid), this problem
has been fixed in version 0.99.2-13.
We recommend that you upgrade your mon package.
