PublicDateAtUSN: 2008-10-02
Candidate: CVE-2008-3521
PublicDate: 2008-10-02
References:
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-3521
http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-742-1
Description:
Race condition in the jas_stream_tmpfile function in
libjasper/base/jas_stream.c in JasPer 1.900.1 allows local users to cause a
denial of service (program exit) by creating the appropriate tmp.XXXXXXXXXX
temporary file, which causes Jasper to exit. NOTE: this was originally
reported as a symlink issue, but this was incorrect. NOTE: some vendors
dispute the severity of this issue, but it satisfies CVE's requirements for
inclusion.
Ubuntu-Description:
Notes:
kees> opened with O_EXCL
mdeslaur> ghostscript jasper already uses appropriate temp filename
