</p>
</background>
<description>
<p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Fail2ban. Please review
the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>A remote attacker could send a crafted URL to a web site which, when
parsed by Fail2ban, would deny a specific IP address. Also, errors in
regular expressions within certain filters can cause arbitrary IP
addresses to be banned. Furthermore, a local attacker could perform
symlink attacks to overwrite arbitrary files with the privileges of the
user running the application.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>All Fail2ban users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-analyzer/fail2ban-0.8.12
</code>
