COMMAND rcs2log SYSTEMS AFFECTED Emacs PROBLEM Morten Welinder found following. rcs2log uses files in /tmp insecurely. This was reported to the Emacs maintainers an aeon or two ago. There seem to be quite a few sources for rcs2log out there. A SuSE 6.3 (guess) seems to install three different versions in four different spots. xyz:~> ls -l `locate rcs2log` -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 17927 Nov 8 1999 /usr/bin/rcs2log -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 17927 Nov 8 1999 /usr/lib/cvs/contrib/rcs2log -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 17902 Nov 8 1999 /usr/lib/emacs/20.4/i386-suse-linux/rcs2log -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 17357 Feb 8 2001 /usr/lib/xemacs/21.1.10/i386-suse-linux/rcs2log SOLUTION Current preleases have a fix.
