Description Alex Legler (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2009-09-21 20:45:05 UTC 
Upstream release notes:
Fixed security issue with temporary file handling in the generated iptables script. The problem only affects Linux systems where Firewall Builder is used to generate static routing configuration. The problem exists in Firewall Builder versions 3.0.4, 3.0.5, 3.0.6

3.0.7 was released to fix this issue, however in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=524588, Jan Lieskovsky mentioned that the fix is not complete.
Upstream is informed. Let's wait for a reaction.
