Package: firehol
Version: 1.214-1
Severity: critical
Tags: security sarge

Both firehol and firehol-wizard use known temporary file names in a
predictably named temporary directory (PID-based).

Neither program ensures that those directories are safe before blasting
the contents of files within. An attacker can place carefully named
symlinks in the directory and overwrite or corrupt many files on the
system.

I have exploited this (it's trivial if even I can do it).

Security team says:
"You may add that if the author/maintainer doesn't know how to fix
the problem either, they should not hesitate to contact us."
