It was discovered that Puppet used a predictable filename when downloading Mac OS X package files. A local attacker could exploit this to overwrite arbitrary files. (CVE-2012-1906)

It was discovered that Puppet incorrectly handled filebucket retrieval requests. A local attacker could exploit this to read arbitrary files.
(CVE-2012-1986)

It was discovered that Puppet incorrectly handled filebucket store requests. A local attacker could exploit this to perform a denial of service via resource exhaustion. (CVE-2012-1987)

It was discovered that Puppet incorrectly handled filebucket requests.
A local attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code via a crafted file path. (CVE-2012-1988)

It was discovered that Puppet used a predictable filename for the Telnet connection log file. A local attacker could exploit this to overwrite arbitrary files. This issue only affected Ubuntu 11.10.
(CVE-2012-1989).

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
