    <p>A local attacker could use this flaw to truncate arbitrary system file,
      to change file owner or mode on arbitrary system files, to conduct
      symlink attacks and send arbitrary system files, to execute arbitrary
      system commands, to cause abort in subsequent logrotate runs, to disclose
      sensitive information, to execute arbitrary code or cause a Denial of
      Service condition.

  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
  </workaround>
