Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Versions of github.com/golang/glog before 1.2.4 are vulnerable. A local attacker who can write to a world-writable log directory, which is the default, can predict a privileged process's log file path and place a symbolic link there that points to a sensitive file, and the privileged process then overwrites that file. Upgrade to glog 1.2.4, which makes the program exit with status code 2 when the log file already exists.
