<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A local attacker could create malicious links and invoke a VDR
|
|
recording that would overwrite arbitrary files on the system.

</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

</workaround>

<resolution>
|

<p>
|
|
All VDR users should upgrade to the latest version:

<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-video/vdr-1.2.6-r1"</code>
