+ <p>An LSS Security Advisory reports:</p>
+ <blockquote cite="http://security.lss.hr/en/index.php?page=details&amp;ID=LSS-2005-01-01">
+ <p>When a denial of service attack is detected,
+ mod_dosevasive will, among other things, create a
+ temporary file which it will use to trace actions from the
+ offensive IP address. This file is insecurely created in
+ /tmp and it's name is easily predictable.</p>
+ <p>It is then easy for an attacker to create arbitrary files
+ in any directory that the user under which apache runs has
+ privileges to write.</p>
+ <p><em>[...]</em> once the target file is opened, there is a
+ race attack (although difficult to exploit) which can lead
+ to mod_dosevasive overwriting any file that the user under
+ which apache runs has privileges to write.</p>
