liguidsoap.py in liguidsoap 0.3.8.1+2 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on (1) /tmp/liguidsoap.liq, (2) /tmp/lig.#####.log, and (3) /tmp/emission.ogg temporary files.
The product attempts to access a file based on the filename, but it does not properly prevent that filename from identifying a link or shortcut that resolves to an unintended resource.
