NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream jinja2 package and not the jinja2 package as distributed by Ubuntu.

The default configuration for bccache.FileSystemBytecodeCache in Jinja2 before 2.7.2 does not properly create temporary files, which allows local users to gain privileges via a crafted .cache file with a name starting with _jinja2 in /tmp.
