NVD Description

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

The SPICE Firefox plug-in (spice-xpi) 2.4, 2.3, 2.2, and possibly other versions allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the usbrdrctl log file, which has a predictable name.
