+ <p>Jan Minar reports that there exists multiple
+ vulnerabilities in wget:</p>
+ <blockquote cite="http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bugtraq&amp;m=110269474112384">
+ <p>Wget erroneously thinks that the current directory is a
+ fair game, and will happily write in any file in and below
+ it. Malicious HTTP response or malicious HTML file can
+ redirect wget to a file that is vital to the system, and
+ wget will create/append/overwrite it.</p>
+ <p>Wget apparently has at least two methods of
+ ``sanitizing'' the potentially malicious data it receives
+ from the HTTP stream, therefore a malicious redirects can
+ pass the check. We haven't find a way to trick wget into
+ writing above the parent directory, which doesn't mean
+ it's not possible.</p>
+ <p>Malicious HTTP response can overwrite parts of the
+ terminal so that the user will not notice anything wrong,
+ or will believe the error was not fatal.</p>
