    Gauche is an R5RS Scheme interpreter.

  <description>
    <p>
    Gentoo packaging for OpenLDAP and Gauche may introduce insecure paths
    into the list of directories that are searched for libraries at
    runtime.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="low">
    <p>
    A local attacker, who is a member of the "portage" group, could create
    a malicious shared object in the Portage temporary build directory that
    would be loaded at runtime by a dependent binary, potentially resulting
    in privilege escalation.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    Only grant "portage" group rights to trusted users.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All OpenLDAP users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose net-nds/openldap</code>
    <p>
    All Gauche users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=dev-scheme/gauche-0.8.6-r1&quot;</code>
