The gfs2-utils package provides the user-space tools necessary to mount,
create, maintain, and test GFS2 file systems.

Multiple insecure temporary file use flaws were discovered in GFS2 user
level utilities. A local attacker could use these flaws to overwrite an
arbitrary file writable by a victim running those utilities (typically
root) with the output of the utilities via a symbolic link attack.
