ECHO-9FA2-4BCD-F5BA gccross in dpkg-cross 2.3.0 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the tmp/gccross2.log temporary file. The vendor disputes this vulnerability, stating that "There is no sense in this bug - the script is installed in /usr/share/ and is called under specific cross-building environments within a chroot".
