Package        : mhc
Vulnerability  : insecure temporary file
Problem-Type   : local
Debian-specific: no

It has been discovered that adb2mhc from the mhc-utils package.  The
default temporary directory uses a predictable name.  This adds a
vulnerability that allows a local attacker to overwrite arbitrary
files the users has write permissions for.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been
fixed in version 0.25+20010625-7.1.

For the old stable distribution (potato) does not contain mhc
packages.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.25+20030224-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your mhc-utils packages.
