+Subject: Prevent directory chmod race attack.
+
+CVE-2017-6512 is a race condition attack where the chmod() of directories
+that cannot be entered is misused to change the permissions on other
+files or directories on the system. This has been corrected by limiting
+the directory-permission loosening logic to systems where fchmod() is
+supported.
+
+[Backported (whitespace adjustments) to File-Path 2.12 / perl 5.24 by
+Dominic Hargreaves for Debian.]
