Ed normally uses the mktemp function to create temporary files in /tmp, but this function contains a vulnerability (see the section on Temporary Files at  http://en.tldp.org/HOWTO/Secure-Programs-HOWTO/avoid-race.html).

Introduction to Ed

Ed is a line-oriented text editor. It is used to create, display, modify and otherwise manipulate text files, both interactively and via shell scripts. Ed isn't something which many people use. It's described here because it can be used by the patch program if you encounter an ed-based patch file. This happens rarely because diff-based patches are preferred these days.

Dependencies

This package does not provide any libraries so only one installation is needed.

32Bit

Compile the package: 

CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix="" &&
make

Install the package 

make install

N32

Compile the package: 

CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix="" &&
make

Install the package 

make install

64Bit

Compile the package:
