high Nessus Plugin ID 18595

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

Justin Rye discovered that crip, a terminal-based ripper, encoder and tagger tool, utilises temporary files in an insecure fashion in its helper scripts.

The old stable distribution (woody) does not provide the crip package.

Solution

Upgrade the crip package.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 3.5-1sarge2.
