           Summary: perl-IPTables-Parse: insecure temporary file use
           Product: Security Response

A flaw was fixed in perl-IPTables-Parse:

(Miloslav Trmač) Fixed a vulnerability to not use predictable names for
temporary files. This vulnerability would allow an attacker on a multi- user
system to set up symlinks to overwrite any file the current user has write
access to. If a user manually overrides the temporary file locations with the
'iptout' and 'ipterr' hash keys, it is recommended to not use predictable names
either.
