skkdic-expr.c insecurely writes temporary files to a location in the
|
|
form $TMPDIR/skkdic$PID.{pag,dir,db}, where $PID is the process ID.

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A local attacker could create symbolic links in the directory where the
|
|
temporary files are written, pointing to a valid file somewhere on the
|
|
filesystem that is writable by the user running the SKK software. When
|
|
SKK writes the temporary file, the target valid file would then be
|
|
overwritten with the contents of the SKK temporary file.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

All SKK Tools users should upgrade to the latest version:

<code>

# emerge --sync

|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-i18n/skktools-1.2-r1"</code>
