Wget was susceptible to a symlink attack which could create arbitrary
files, directories or symbolic links and set their permissions when
retrieving a directory recursively through FTP (CVE-2014-4877).

The default settings in wget have been changed such that wget no longer
creates local symbolic links, but rather traverses them and retrieves the
pointed-to file in such a retrieval. The old behaviour can be attained by
passing the --retr-symlinks=no option to the wget command.");
