headers, does not take appropriate security precautions when creating
temporary files.  This bug could potentially be exploited to overwrite
arbitrary files with the privileges of the user running Emacs and
x-face-el, potentially with contents supplied by the attacker.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.3.6.19-1woody1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 1.3.6.23-1.
