Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions multi-gnome-terminal version 1.6.2

Description The issue allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a (1) /tmp/.debug or (2) /tmp/.env temporary file. This is related to the mgt-helper in multi-gnome-terminal.

Recommendations For version 1.6.2, consider restricting access to temporary files in /tmp to prevent symlink attacks until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the mgt-helper function in multi-gnome-terminal until the issue is resolved.
