Title:	Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2005:029 (vim)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to vim announced via advisory MDKSA-2005:029. Javier Fernandez-Sanguino Pena discovered two vulnerabilities in scripts included with the vim editor. The two scripts, tcltags and vimspell.sh created temporary files in an insecure manner which could allow a malicious user to execute a symbolic link attack or to create, or overwrite, arbitrary files with the privileges of the user invoking the scripts. The updated packages are patched to prevent this problem. Affected versions: 10.0, 10.1, Corporate Server 2.1, Corporate Server 3.0 Solution: To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=MDKSA-2005:029 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2005-0069 Risk factor : Medium CVSS Score: 4.6
