Description: Jens Steube discovered several vulnerabilities in remstats, the remote statistics system. When processing uptime data on the unix-server a temporary file is opened in an insecure fashion which could be used for a symlink attack to create or overwrite arbitrary files with the permissions of the remstats user. (CAN-2005-0387) The remoteping service can be exploited to execute arbitrary commands due to missing input sanitizing. (CAN-2005-0388)
