Background ========== libsoup is an HTTP client/server library for GNOME. Affected packages ================= ------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 net-libs/libsoup < 2.56.1 >= 2.56.1 Description =========== A stack based buffer overflow vulnerability was discovered in libsoup. Impact ====== A remote attacker, by using specially crafted HTTP requests, could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the process. Workaround ========== There is no known workaround at this time. Resolution ========== All libsoup users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-libs/libsoup-2.56.1" Packages which depend on this library may need to be recompiled. Tools such as revdep-rebuild may assist in identifying some of these packages.
