Background ========= Video Disk Recorder (VDR) is a Linux-based digital video recorder. The VDR program handles the On Screen Menu system that offers complete control over channel settings, timers and recordings.

Impact ===== A local attacker could create malicious links and invoke a VDR recording that would overwrite arbitrary files on the system. Workaround ========= There is no known workaround at this time. Resolution ========= All VDR users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "> =media-video/vdr-1.2.6-r1" References ========= [ 1 ] CAN-2005-0071 https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CAN-2005-0071 Availability =========== This GLSA and any updates to it areavailable for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/200501-42 Concerns? ======== Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users machines is of utmost importance to us.
