[ MDVSA-2009:206-1 ] wget

 Problem Description:

 A vulnerability has been found and corrected in wget:
 
 GNU Wget before 1.12 does not properly handle a '\0' (NUL) character
 in a domain name in the Common Name field of an X.509 certificate,
 which allows man-in-the-middle remote attackers to spoof arbitrary SSL
 servers via a crafted certificate issued by a legitimate Certification
 Authority, a related issue to CVE-2009-2408 (CVE-2009-3490).

[ MDVSA-2010:170 ] wget

 Problem Description:

 A vulnerability has been found and corrected in wget:
 
 GNU Wget 1.12 and earlier uses a server-provided filename instead of
 the original URL to determine the destination filename of a download,
 which allows remote servers to create or overwrite arbitrary files
 via a 3xx redirect to a URL with a .wgetrc filename followed by a
 3xx redirect to a URL with a crafted filename, and possibly execute
 arbitrary code as a consequence of writing to a dotfile in a home

Most popular web browsers are not be able to display URLs exploiting

Substitute port 7002 to target Keys Server instead of Protection

This example will retrieve the C:\boot.ini file.

think that no other explanation is required. Anyway, this is a simple

Ahh. gentoo still uses the openswan-2.4.x version which has been EOL since
early 2008.

Also note that to problematic use was in wget -O. Perhaps one should talk
to the wget people about symlink attack in their code instead?

Re: [ GLSA 200903-18 ] Openswan: Insecure temporary file creation

The version of a software to move to stable or to remain in unstable 
Gentoo is at the discretion of the maintainer, so I cannot comment on 
the reasons for this.
