Subject: [suse-security-announce] makewhatis bug
From: Thomas Biege (thomassuse.de)
Date: Mon Jul 10 2000 - 10:50:48 CDT

Hi,
a few days ago a /tmp race condition bug in the makewhatis program was
posted on bugtraq.
We are NOT vulnerable by this bug, because we use different code, which
doesn't touch /tmp in a unsecure way.

Bye,
     Thomas
