11 | <para>This package requires its patch to be applied before you can

12 | install it. This patch fixes a symlink vulnerability in

13 | <userinput>ed</userinput>. The <userinput>ed</userinput> executable
|
---|
14 | creates files in <filename class="directory">/tmp</filename> with
|
---|
15 | predictable names. By using various symlink attacks, it is possible
|

16 | to have ed write to files it should not, change the permissions of
