+  <title>policyd-weight: Insecure temporary file creation</title>

+    policyd-weight uses temporary files in an insecure manner, allowing for a
+    symlink attack.

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    policyd-weight is a Perl policy daemon for the Postfix MTA intended to
+    eliminate forged envelope senders and HELOs.

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Chris Howells reported that policyd-weight creates and uses the
+    "/tmp/.policyd-weight/" directory in an insecure manner.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability to delete arbitrary
+    files or change the ownership to the "polw" user via symlink attacks.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    Set "<i>$LOCKPATH = '/var/run/policyd-weight/'</i>" manually in
+    "/etc/policyd-weight.conf".
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All policyd-weight users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=mail-filter/policyd-weight-0.1.14.17"</code>
+    <p>
+    This version changes the default path for sockets to
+    "/var/run/policyd-weight", which is only writable by a privileged user.
+    Users need to restart policyd-weight immediately after the upgrade due
+    to this change.
+    </p>
