Security fix for CVE-2015-7543 in arts (the legacy aRts sound server): A temporary directory was being created insecurely using mktemp and mkdir, allowing an attacker to hijack the temporary directory and thus the inter- process communication (IPC). This update fixes the temporary directory creation to use the safe mkdtemp function instead.. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2015-8dd01b09a9 2015-12-30 17:33:17.150916 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : arts Product : Fedora 22 Version : 1.5.10 Release : 30.fc22 URL : https://kde.org/ Summary : aRts (analog realtime synthesizer) - the KDE sound system Description : arts (analog real-time synthesizer) is the sound system of KDE 3. The principle of arts is to create/process sound using small modules which do certain tasks. These may be create a waveform (oscillators), play samples, filter data, add signals, perform effects like delay/flanger/chorus, or output the data to the soundcard. By connecting all those small modules together, you can perform complex tasks like simulating a mixer, generating an instrument or things like playing a wave file with some effects. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Security fix for CVE-2015-7543 in arts (the legacy aRts sound server): A temporary directory was being created insecurely using mktemp and mkdir, allowing an attacker to hijack the temporary directory and thus the inter- process communication (IPC).
