"The version of GNU libc that was distributed with Debian GNU/Linux 2.2
suffered from 2 security problems :

  - It was possible to use LD_PRELOAD to load libraries that
    are listed in /etc/ld.so.cache, even for suid programs.
    This could be used to create (and overwrite) files which
    a user should not be allowed to.
  - By using LD_PROFILE suid programs would write data to a
    file to /var/tmp, which was not done safely. Again, this
    could be used to create (and overwrite) files which a
    user should not have access to.

Both problems have been fixed in version 2.1.3-17 and we recommend
that you upgrade your glibc packages immediately.


Please note that a side-effect of this upgrade is that ldd will no
longer work on suid programs, unless you logged in as root."

check which only preloads found libraries if they have the SUID bit
set. However, if a library has been found in /etc/ld.so.cache, this
check was not performed. As a result, a malicious user could preload
some library located in /lib or /usr/lib before SUID/SGID applications
and create or overwrite a file he would not normally have permission

/var/tmp, making it vulnerable to various link attacks."
