                 Mandrakelinux Security Update Advisory
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Package name:           gzip
 Advisory ID:            MDKSA-2004:142
 Date:                   December 6th, 2004

 Affected versions:	 10.0, 10.1, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1,
			 Multi Network Firewall 8.2
 ______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 The Trustix developers found some insecure temporary file creation
 problems in the zdiff, znew, and gzeze supplemental scripts in the
 gzip package.  These flaws could allow local users to overwrite files
 via a symlink attack.
 
 A similar problem was fixed last year (CAN-2003-0367) in which this
 same problem was found in znew.  At that time, Mandrakesoft also used
 mktemp to correct the problems in gzexe.  This update uses mktemp to
 handle temporary files in the zdiff script.
