NVD Description

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

fixproc in Net-snmp 5.x before 5.2.1-r1 creates temporary files insecurely, which allows local users to modify the contents of those files to execute arbitrary commands, or overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack.
