+  <title>Netatalk: Insecure tempfile handling in etc2ps.sh</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    The etc2ps.sh script, included in the Netatalk package, is vulnerable to
+    symlink attacks, potentially allowing a local user to overwrite arbitrary
+    files with the rights of the user running the utility.

+    <p>
+    Netatalk is a kernel level implementation of the AppleTalk Protocol Suite,
+    which allows Unix hosts to act as file, print, and time servers for Apple
+    computers. It includes several script utilities, including etc2ps.sh.

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    The etc2ps.sh script creates temporary files in world-writeable directories
+    with predictable names.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A local attacker could create symbolic links in the temporary files
+    directory, pointing to a valid file somewhere on the filesystem. When
+    etc2ps.sh is executed, this would result in the file being overwritten with
+    the rights of the user running the utility, which could be the root user.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Netatalk users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge sync
+
+    # emerge -pv "&gt;=net-fs/netatalk-1.6.4-r1"
+    # emerge "&gt;=net-fs/netatalk-1.6.4-r1"</code>
