Summary
The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory GLSA 200711-34.
Insight
Insight
Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in CSTeX, possibly allowing to execute arbitrary code or overwrite arbitrary files.
Solution
Solution
CSTeX is not maintained upstream, so the package was masked in Portage. We recommend that users unmerge CSTeX: # emerge --unmerge app-text/cstetex As an alternative, users should upgrade their systems to use teTeX or TeX Live with its Babel packages. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=GLSA%20200711-34 http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=196673 http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200708-05.xml http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200709-12.xml http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200709-17.xml http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200710-12.xml http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200711-22.xml http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200711-26.xml
