Hi,
the following CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id was
published for cmus.
CVE-2008-5375[0]:
| cmus-status-display in cmus 2.2.0 allows local users to overwrite
| arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /tmp/cmus-status temporary
| file.
debug.c also does something in /tmp, so one would need to check that as
well.
Since the program is not executed with root rights, this could be fixed
for stable via stable-proposed-updates.
It would also be nice to fix this bug for lenny.
If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE id in your changelog entry.
Cheers
Steffen
