Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:074
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________

Package : audacity
Date : March 20, 2008
Affected: 2007.1, 2008.0, Corporate 3.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

Audacity creates a temporary directory with a predictable name without
checking for previous existence of that directory, which allows local
users to cause a denial of service (recording deadlock) by creating
the directory before Audacity is run. This issue can also be leveraged
to delete arbitrary files or directories via a symlink attack.

The updated package fixes the issue.
