The Apache Portable Runtime (aka APR) provides a set of APIs for
|
|
creating platform-independent applications. The Apache Portable Runtime
|
|
Utility Library (aka APR-Util) provides an interface to functionality
|
|
such as XML parsing, string matching and databases connections.

Matt Lewis reported multiple Integer overflows in the apr_rmm_malloc(),
|
|
apr_rmm_calloc(), and apr_rmm_realloc() functions in misc/apr_rmm.c of
|
|
APR-Util and in memory/unix/apr_pools.c of APR, both occurring when
|
|
aligning memory blocks.

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could entice a user to connect to a malicious server
|
|
with software that uses the APR or act as a malicious client to a
|
|
server that uses the APR (such as Subversion or Apache servers),
|
|
possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the
|
|
privileges of the user running the application.

<workaround>

<p>
|

There is no known workaround at this time.

All Apache Portable Runtime users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-libs/apr-1.3.8"</code>

All APR Utility Library users should upgrade to the latest version:

|

<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-libs/apr-util-1.3.9"</code>
