Solution
- All Nagios users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose '>=net-analyzer/nagios-core-3.0.6-r2' NOTE: Users of the Nagios 2 branch can update to version 2.12-r1 which contains a patch to fix CVE-2009-2288. However, that branch is not supported upstream or in Gentoo and we are unaware whether the other vulnerabilities affect 2.x installations.
