+ <title>FireHOL: Insecure temporary file creation</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ FireHOL is vulnerable to symlink attacks, potentially allowing a local user
+ to overwrite arbitrary files.

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ FireHOL is an iptables rules generator.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ FireHOL insecurely creates temporary files with predictable names.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A local attacker could create malicious symbolic links to arbitrary
+ system files. When FireHOL is executed, this could lead to these files
+ being overwritten with the rights of the user launching FireHOL,
+ usually the root user.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All FireHOL users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=net-firewall/firehol-1.224&quot;</code>
