Bug Description

Binary package hint: sabre

XRunSabre in sabre (aka xsabre) 0.2.4b relies on the ability to create /tmp/sabre.log, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (application unavailability) by creating a /tmp/sabre.log file that cannot be overwritten.

It was already fixed at Debian in version 0.2.4b-25. It just need to be synced.
