NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream netpbm-free package and not the netpbm-free package as distributed by Echo. See How to fix? for Echo:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

netpbm 9.25 and earlier does not properly create temporary files, which allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files.
