NVD Description

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

The Gentoo app-backup/burp package before 2.1.32 has incorrect group ownership of the /etc/burp directory, which might allow local users to obtain read and write access to arbitrary files by leveraging access to a certain account for a burp-server.conf change.
