Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2013-12-24 12:02:09 UTC 
From ${URL} :

Gitolite was found to be vulnerable to local filesystem information leak, where it could create 
world writable files in the repositories (particularly the gitolite-admin one) depending on the 
user umask running gitolite setup.

@maintainer(s): since the fixed package is already in the tree, please let us know if it is ready for the stabilization or not.
Comment 1 Christian Ruppert (idl0r) gentoo-dev 2014-01-11 01:56:54 UTC 
I haven't used 3.x so far but I think it should be ok to stabilize 3.5.3.1.
Comment 2 Alex Xu (Hello71) 2014-04-08 01:30:04 UTC 
I don't think this applies to us, since the only 3.x version in tree is ~.

This was fixed when https://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/dev-vcs/gitolite/gitolite-3.5.3.1.ebuild?hideattic=0&view=log hit the tree.

@ Security: Please vote!
