<impact type="high">
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>A local attacker could cause a Denial of Service condition or perform
|
|
|
|
|
|
symlink attacks to overwrite arbitrary files with the privileges of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
user running the application. A context-dependent attacker could cause a
|
|
|
|
|
|
Denial of Service condition.
