NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream hardlink package and not the hardlink package as distributed by Debian.

Hardlink before 0.1.2 operates on full file system objects path names which can allow a local attacker to use this flaw to conduct symlink attacks.
