<define-tag description>LTS security update</define-tag>
<define-tag moreinfo>
<p>It has been reported that arts uses the insecure mktemp() function
to create the temporary directory it uses to host user-specific sockets.
It is thus possible for another user to hijack this temporary directory
and gain IPC access it should not have.</p>

<p>In Debian 6 <q>Squeeze</q>, this issue has been addressed in arts
1.5.9-3+deb6u1 with the use of the safer mkdtemp() function.
We recommend that you upgrade your arts packages.</p>

<p>Other Debian releases do not have the arts package.</p>
