The MagnatuneBrowser::listDownloadComplete function in
magnatunebrowser/magnatunebrowser.cpp in Amarok before 1.4.10 allows local
users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the
album_info.xml temporary file.

jdstrand | Ubuntu 6.06 LTS (Dapper) does not contain the vulnerable code amarok tries to remove the file before opening it, so there is a TOCTOU vulnerability and a symlink could be inserted before open. This makes the attack much harder, but still possible. |
