HOME variable buffer overflow exploit exists, allowing file clobbering on SuSE 6.2 systems.

Code
`Greetings,  
  
My last post regarding a sccw exploit simply allowed any user to read  
any file on the system but, of course, didn't yield any instant root. A  
much more serious problem now exists in the form of a HOME environment  
variable buffer overflow. If you hadn't removed the s-bit before, now is  
the time. In addition to this problem, a $HOME/.sccw symlink  
vulnerability also exists, allowing any user to clobber any file on the  
system.
