a GTK+ configuration tool for samba, uses temporary files in an unsafe
manner which may be exploited to truncate arbitrary files from the local

For the stable distribution (etch) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.1.4-2etch1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed shortly.
