  Oliver-Tobias Ripka discovered that an ACPI script incorrectly handled

  Helmut Grohne and Michael Biebl discovered that ACPI scripts were
  executed with a permissive file mode creation mask (umask). A local
  attacker could read files and modify directories created by ACPI
  scripts that did not set a strict umask (CVE-2011-4578).

  The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.");
