+    Multiple vulnerabilities in the way sysstat handles symlinks may allow an
+    attacker to execute arbitrary code or overwrite arbitrary files

+  <affected>
+    <package name="app-admin/sysstat" auto="yes" arch="x86 ppc sparc amd64">
+      <unaffected range="ge">5.0.2</unaffected>

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    sysstat is a package containing a number of performance monitoring
+    utilities for Linux, including sar, mpstat, iostat and sa tools
+    </p>
+  </background>
+  <description>
+    <p>
+    There are two vulnerabilities in the way sysstat handles symlinks:
+    </p>
+	<ol>
+    <li>The isag utility, which displays sysstat data in a graphical format,
+    creates a temporary file in an insecure manner.</li>
+    <li>Two scripts in the sysstat package, post and trigger, create temporary
+    files in an insecure manner.</li>
+	</ol>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    Both vulnerabilities may allow an attacker to overwrite arbitrary files
+    under the permissions of the user executing any of the affected 
+    utilities.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    A workaround is not currently known for this issue. All users are advised
+    to upgrade to the latest version of the affected package.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    Systat users should upgrade to version 4.2 or later:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge sync
+    
+    # emerge -pv ">=app-admin/sysstat-5.0.2"
+    # emerge ">=app-admin/sysstat-5.0.2"</code>
