<background>
<p>The Perl RPC Module is a Perl module that implements IDL-free RPCs.</p>
</background>
<description>
<p>PlRPC uses Storable module for serialization and deserialization of
untrusted data. Deserialized data can contain objects which can lead to
loading of foreign modules, and possible execution of arbitrary code.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>A remote attacker could possibly execute
arbitrary code with the privileges of the process, or cause a Denial of
Service condition.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>External authentication mechanism can be used with PlRPC such as TLS or
IPSEC.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>All PlRPC users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-perl/PlRPC-0.202.0-r2"
</code>
</resolution>
