[vdr] vdr, vdradmin 0.96: security bugs?

[Darren Salt <linux@youmustbejoking.demon.co.uk>]

I've just come across a Debian bug report which describes insecure use of
temporary files in vdradmin 0.96 - see <URL:http://bugs.debian.org/287601>
(patch available). It looks like a root-only problem, so those of you who are
using my packages (or are otherwise running vdr as non-root) shouldn't be
affected.

There's also comment on a lack of checks in vdr to defend against things such
as symlink attacks, although these are presumably referring to 1.2.6. I've
not looked for myself.

If it isn't broken, break it then charge for repair.
