Freshness: upstream tracker timestamp is available; use API updated time as primary recency signal.
CVE-2018-6198 unimportant priority: Debian including 1 source packages (w3m), 5 status rows across 5 suites (bookworm, bullseye, forky, sid, trixie): resolved 5.
w3m through 0.5.3 does not properly handle temporary files when the ~/.w3m directory is unwritable, which allows a local attacker to craft a symlink attack to overwrite arbitrary files.
