Freshness: upstream tracker timestamp is available; use API updated time as primary recency signal.
CVE-2012-6607 low priority: Ubuntu including 1 source packages (augeas), 13 status rows across 13 suites (lucid, precise, quantal, raring, saucy, trusty, upstream, utopic, vivid, wily, xenial, yakkety, zesty): not-affected 9, ignored 3, released 1.
The transform_save function in transform.c in Augeas before 1.0.0 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files and obtain sensitive information via a symlink attack on a .augsave file in a backup save action, a different vector than CVE-2012-0786.
