 desc = 'The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200410-10
(gettext: Insecure temporary file handling)


    gettext insecurely creates temporary files in world-writeable directories
    with predictable names.
  
Impact

    A local attacker could create symbolic links in the temporary files
    directory, pointing to a valid file somewhere on the filesystem. When
    gettext is called, this would result in file access with the rights of the
    user running the utility, which could be the root user.
  
Workaround

    There is no known workaround at this time.
  
References:

Solution: 
    All gettext users should upgrade to the latest version:
    # emerge sync
    # emerge -pv ">=sys-devel/gettext-0.12.1-r2"
    # emerge ">=sys-devel/gettext-0.12.1.-r2"
