Hello,

It was reported that the pear utility insecurely used the /tmp/ directory for cache data. A local attacker could use this flaw to perform a symbolic link attack against a user (typically the root user) running a pear command (such as "pear install").

Original report:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=759282

Could a CVE please be assigned?

Thanks,
