Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2013:085
http://www.mandriva.com/en/support/security/
_______________________________________________________________________
Package : groff
Date : April 9, 2013
Affected: Enterprise Server 5.0
_______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in groff:
contrib/pdfmark/pdfroff.sh in GNU troff (aka groff) before 1.21 allows
local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a
pdf#####.tmp temporary file (CVE-2009-5044).
The (1) gendef.sh, (2) doc/fixinfo.sh, and (3)
contrib/gdiffmk/tests/runtests.in scripts in GNU troff (aka groff)
1.21 and earlier allow local users to overwrite arbitrary files
via a symlink attack on a gro#####.tmp or /tmp/##### temporary file
(CVE-2009-5079).
The (1) contrib/eqn2graph/eqn2graph.sh,
(2) contrib/grap2graph/grap2graph.sh, and (3)
contrib/pic2graph/pic2graph.sh scripts in GNU troff (aka groff)
1.21 and earlier do not properly handle certain failed attempts
to create temporary directories, which might allow local users
to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a file in a
temporary directory, a different vulnerability than CVE-2004-1296
(CVE-2009-5080).
The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
