Package: guilt
Version: 0.27-1
Severity: critical
Tags: security

guilt makes extensive use of the '$$' shell variable for temporary
files in /tmp.  This is a serious security vulnerability; on multi-user
systems it allows an attacker to clobber files with something like the 
following:

  for i in `seq 1 32768`; do 
    ln -sf /etc/passwd /tmp/guilt.log.$i;
  done

(In this example, if root does e.g. 'guilt push', /etc/passwd will get
clobbered.)

Please use mktemp(1) to create temporary files.

For reference:

guilt-0.27$ grep '$$' *
guilt:                          $reject "$p" > /dev/null 2> /tmp/guilt.log.$$
guilt:                                  rm -f /tmp/guilt.log.$$ /tmp/guilt.msg.\
$$
guilt:          do_get_header "$p" > /tmp/guilt.msg.$$
guilt:          [ ! -s /tmp/guilt.msg.$$ ] && echo "patch $pname" > /tmp/guilt.\
msg.$$
guilt:  rm -f /tmp/guilt.msg.$$ /tmp/guilt.log.$$
guilt:          do_get_full_header "$p" > /tmp/guilt.diff.$$
guilt:                  ) >> /tmp/guilt.diff.$$
guilt:          git-diff $diffopts "$2" >> /tmp/guilt.diff.$$
guilt-header:   do_get_full_header "$GUILT_DIR/$branch/$patch" > /tmp/guilt.msg\
.$$
guilt-header:   do_get_patch "$GUILT_DIR/$branch/$patch" > /tmp/guilt.diff.$$
guilt-header:           cat /tmp/guilt.msg.$$
guilt-header:           cat /tmp/guilt.diff.$$
