NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libcapture-tiny-perl package and not the libcapture-tiny-perl package as distributed by Ubuntu.

The Capture::Tiny module before 0.24 for Perl allows local users to write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary file.
