+  <description>
+    <p>
+    When the mailbox is created in useradd, the "open()" function does
+    not receive the three arguments it expects while O_CREAT is present,
+    which leads to random permissions on the created file, before fchmod()
+    is executed.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    Depending on the random permissions given to the mailbox file
+    which is at this time owned by root, a local user may be able to open
+    this file for reading or writing, or even executing it, maybe as the
+    root user.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All shadow users should upgrade to the latest version:

+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=sys-apps/shadow-4.0.15-r2&quot;</code>
