What is CVE-2008-1383?

The docert function in the ssl-cert.eclass of Gentoo Linux improperly handles SSL keys during the src_compile or src_install processes. This vulnerability allows local users to access and extract sensitive SSL keys stored within binpkgs, leading to the potential use of identical SSL keys and certificates across multiple systems utilizing the same binpkg. This exposure poses significant risks to system integrity and data security.
