The host is running Firewall Builder and is prone to Privilege Escalation vulnerability.

Successful exploitation will allow local users to perform certain actions with escalated privileges. Impact Level: Application

Update to version 3.0.7 For updates refer to http://www.fwbuilder.org/

The flaw is due to the application generating scripts, which are using temporary files in an insecure manner. This can be exploited to overwrite arbitrary files via symlink attack.

Firewall Builder versions 3.0.4 to 3.0.6 on Linux.
