Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Suds version 0.4

Description The issue in Suds allows local users to potentially redirect SOAP queries and have other unspecified impact via a symlink attack on a cache file with a predictable name in /tmp/suds/. This occurs when the tempdir is set to None in cache.py.

Recommendations For Suds version 0.4, consider setting the tempdir to a directory that is not accessible by other users to prevent symlink attacks, or apply a fix that generates unpredictable cache file names.
