DESCRIPTION:
A security issue has been reported in Rocks'n'Diamonds, which can be
exploited by malicious, local users to perform certain actions with
escalated privileges.

The security issue is caused due to the application creating e.g. the
"~/.rocksndiamonds/" directory with insecure permissions, which can be
exploited to e.g. overwrite arbitrary files via symlink attacks.

The security issue is reported in version 3.3.0.1. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Restrict access to trusted users only.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
Reported by Jakub Wilk in a Debian bug.
