+  <title>Shorewall: Security policy bypass</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    A vulnerability in Shorewall allows clients authenticated by MAC address
+    filtering to bypass all other security rules.

+    <p>
+    Shorewall is a high level tool for configuring Netfilter, the firewall
+    facility included in the Linux Kernel.
+    </p>
+  </background>
+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Shorewall fails to enforce security policies if configured with
+    "MACLIST_DISPOSITION" set to "ACCEPT" or "MACLIST_TTL" set to a value
+    greater or equal to 0.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="low">
+    <p>
+    A client authenticated by MAC address filtering could bypass all
+    security policies, possibly allowing him to gain access to restricted
+    services. The default installation has MACLIST_DISPOSITION=REJECT and
+    MACLIST_TTL=(blank) (equivalent to 0). This can be checked by looking
+    at the settings in /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    Set "MACLIST_TTL" to "0" and "MACLIST_DISPOSITION" to "REJECT" in the
+    Shorewall configuration file (usually /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf).
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Shorewall users should upgrade to the latest available version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose net-firewall/shorewall</code>
