But for example by the glsa '200610-14' [1] no version i've installed is vulnerable. I'm not sure but i think the problem is that in the file '/usr/portage/metadata/glsa/glsa-200610-14.xml' there are missing an: <unaffected range="rge">4.4.8_pre20070816</unaffected> [1] http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-200610-14.xml Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.

I strongly advise you to upgrade to the latest version of php available in Gentoo, currently dev-lang/php-5.2.6_rc3. The 4 major of PHP is neither supported upstream nor by us anymore. However, you are right in that these GLSAs do not affect the 4.4.8 version you are using. I fixed that in CVS, please emerge --sync and retry.
