<description>

|
<p>
|
|
Adriano Lima and Ramon de Carvalho Valle reported that functions
|
|
isc_attach_database() and isc_create_database() do not perform proper
|
|
boundary checking when processing their input.

|
<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could send specially crafted requests to the Firebird
|
|
server on TCP port 3050, possibly resulting in the execution of
|
|
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Firebird
|
|
(usually firebird).
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All Firebird users should upgrade to the latest version:
|

<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-db/firebird-2.0.3.12981.0-r2"</code>
