"A vulnerability exists in znew, a script included with gzip, that
would create temporary files without taking precautions to avoid a
symlink attack. Patches have been applied to make use of mktemp to
generate unique filenames, and properly make use of noclobber in the
script. Likewise, a fix for gzexe which had been applied previously
was incomplete. It has been fixed to make full use of mktemp
everywhere a temporary file is created.

The znew problem was initially reported by Michal Zalewski and was
again reported more recently to Debian by Paul Szabo."
