NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream liferea package and not the liferea package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:13 relevant fixed versions and status.

Liferea before 1.4.6 uses weak permissions (0644) for the feedlist.opml backup file, which allows local users to obtain credentials.
