<description>
<p>
Joseph VanAndel has discovered a buffer overflow in Grip when
processing large CDDB results.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>
A malicious CDDB server could cause Grip to crash by returning
more then 16 matches, potentially allowing the execution of arbitrary
code with the privileges of the user running the application.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
Disable automatic CDDB queries, but we highly encourage users to
upgrade to 3.3.0.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
All Grip users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=media-sound/grip-3.3.0"</code>
</resolution>
