tag_insight = "Several insecure uses of temporary files have been discovered in
support scripts in the libc6 package which provices the c library for
a GNU/Linux system.  Trustix developers found that the catchsegv
script uses temporary files insecurely.  Openwall developers
discovered insecure temporary files in the glibcbug script.  These
scripts are vulnerable to a symlink attack.

For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in
version 2.2.5-11.8.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in
version 2.3.2.ds1-20.

We recommend that you upgrade your libc6 package.";
