+  <title>Net-SNMP: fixproc insecure temporary file creation</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    Net-SNMP creates temporary files in an insecure manner, possibly allowing
+    the execution of arbitrary code.

+    <package name="net-analyzer/net-snmp" auto="yes" arch="*">

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    Net-SNMP is a suite of applications used to implement the Simple
+    Network Management Protocol.

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    The fixproc application of Net-SNMP creates temporary files with
+    predictable filenames.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A malicious local attacker could exploit a race condition to change the
+    content of the temporary files before they are executed by fixproc,
+    possibly leading to the execution of arbitrary code. A local attacker
+    could also create symbolic links in the temporary files directory,
+    pointing to a valid file somewhere on the filesystem. When fixproc is
+    executed, this would result in the file being overwritten.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Net-SNMP users should upgrade to the latest available version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-analyzer/net-snmp-5.2.1-r1"</code>
