Title:	Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-357-1)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'mono' package(s) announced via the USN-357-1 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'mono' package(s) announced via the USN-357-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Sebastian Krahmer of the SuSE security team discovered that the System.CodeDom.Compiler classes used temporary files in an insecure way. This could allow a symbolic link attack to create or overwrite arbitrary files with the privileges of the user invoking the program. Under some circumstances, a local attacker could also exploit this to inject arbitrary code into running Mono processes. Affected Software/OS: 'mono' package(s) on Ubuntu 5.10, Ubuntu 6.06. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 6.2 CVSS Vector: AV:L/AC:H/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
