https://issues.rpath.com/browse/RPL-1036
Description:
Previous versions of the tetex package are vulnerable to a minor
user-complicit attack in which running makeindex with untrusted
input may modify unexpected files or run attacker-provided
code. In general, since TeX will run arbitrary commands in TeX
input, running TeX-related commands on untrusted input is generally
not advised.
