Hash: SHA512

Package: udev
Version: 208-7
Severity: critical

The newest version of udev generates /dev/stdout as plain file instead
as symlink to /proc/self/fd/1 with every boot. (stderr and stdin are
created correctly.)

This is a security leak for some stuff and a problem for many tools
especially security ones that explicitly handle stdout for some reasons.

The content in that file directly after boot (you can find below)
pointed out that it happens especially for udev itself.

This bug affects the whole system.

/dev/stdout file content:
   d /dev/cpu 0755 - - -
   c /dev/cpu/microcode 0600 - - - 10:184
   c /dev/autofs 0600 - - - 10:235
