+  <title>Mono: Insecure temporary file creation</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    Mono is vulnerable to linking attacks, potentially allowing a local user to
+    overwrite arbitrary files.

+  <affected>
+    <package name="dev-lang/mono" auto="yes" arch="*">
+      <unaffected range="ge">1.1.13.8.1</unaffected>

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    Mono provides the necessary software to develop and run .NET client and
+    server applications.

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Sebastian Krahmer of the SuSE Security Team discovered that the
+    System.CodeDom.Compiler classes of Mono create temporary files with
+    insecure permissions.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A local attacker could create links in the temporary file directory,
+    pointing to a valid file somewhere on the filesystem. When an affected
+    class is called, this could result in the file being overwritten with
+    the rights of the user running the script.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Mono users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=dev-lang/mono-1.1.13.8.1&quot;</code>
