CVE-2007-6061

CVSS V2 Medium 5 CVSS V3 None

Description

Audacity 1.3.2 creates a temporary directory with a predictable name without checking for previous existence of that directory, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (recording deadlock) by creating the directory before Audacity is run.
