+ <title>Lighttpd: Multiple vulnerabilities</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ Several vulnerabilities were reported in Lighttpd, most of them allowing a
+ Denial of Service and potentially the remote execution of arbitrary code.
+ </synopsis>
+ <product type="ebuild">lighttpd</product>
+ <announced>August 16, 2007</announced>
+ <revised>August 16, 2007: 01</revised>
+ <bug>185442</bug>
+ <access>remote</access>
+ <affected>
+ <package name="www-servers/lighttpd" auto="yes" arch="*">
+ <unaffected range="ge">1.4.16</unaffected>
+ <vulnerable range="lt">1.4.16</vulnerable>
+ </package>
+ </affected>
+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Lighttpd is a lightweight HTTP web server.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Stefan Esser discovered errors with evidence of memory corruption in
+ the code parsing the headers. Several independent researchers also
+ reported errors involving the handling of HTTP headers, the mod_auth
+ and mod_scgi modules, and the limitation of active connections.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker can trigger any of these vulnerabilities by sending
+ malicious data to the server, which may lead to a crash or memory
+ exhaustion, and potentially the execution of arbitrary code.
+ Additionally, access-deny settings can be evaded by appending a final /
+ to a URL.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Lighttpd users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=www-servers/lighttpd-1.4.16&quot;</code>
+ </resolution>
