Hi,

There is a race condition in unzip 5.52 that can be exploited to
change the permission of files
(http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2005-2475 )

A better description here:

It will be corrected in Unzip 5.53 but before release, it can be handy
to have a patch.

I did adapt the Fedora patch (for 5.51) to 5.52

Regards,
