The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200701-19 (OpenLDAP: Insecure usage of /tmp during installation)

Tavis Ormandy of the Gentoo Linux Security Team has discovered that the     file gencert.sh distributed with the Gentoo ebuild for OpenLDAP does     not exit upon the existence of a directory in /tmp during installation     allowing for directory traversal.

Impact :

A local attacker could create a symbolic link in /tmp and potentially     overwrite arbitrary system files upon a privileged user emerging     OpenLDAP.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.
