    <p>The Red Hat Package Manager (RPM) is a command line driven package
      management system capable of installing, uninstalling, verifying,
      querying, and updating computer software packages.

    <p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in RPM:</p>
    
    <ul>
      <li>fsm.c fails to properly strip setuid and setgid bits from executable
        files during a package upgrade (CVE-2010-2059).
      </li>
      <li>RPM does not properly parse spec files (CVE-2010-2197).</li>
      <li>fsm.c fails to properly strip POSIX file capabilities from executable
        files during a package upgrade or removal (CVE-2010-2198).
      </li>
      <li>fsm.c fails to properly strip POSIX ACLs from executable files during
        a package upgrade or removal (CVE-2010-2199).
      </li>
      <li>header.c does not properly parse region offsets in package files
        (CVE-2011-3378).
      </li>
      <li>RPM does not properly sanitize region tags in package headers
        (CVE-2012-0060).
      </li>
      <li>RPM does not properly sanitize region sizes in package headers
        (CVE-2012-0061).
      </li>
      <li>RPM does not properly sanitize region offsets in package
        headers(CVE-2012-0815).
      </li>
    </ul>

  <impact type="high">
    <p>A local attacker may be able to gain elevated privileges. Furthermore, a
      remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted RPM
      package, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the
      privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>All RPM users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
    
    <code>
      # emerge --sync
      # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=app-arch/rpm-4.9.1.3"
    </code>
