+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Florian Westphal discovered that cmd5checkpw is installed setuid
+ cmd5checkpw but does not drop privileges before calling execvp(), so
+ the invoked program retains the cmd5checkpw euid.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="low">
+ <p>
+ Local users that know at least one valid /etc/poppasswd user/password
+ combination can read the /etc/poppasswd file.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All cmd5checkpw users should upgrade to the latest available version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=net-mail/cmd5checkpw-0.22-r2&quot;</code>
