<background>
<p>nginx is a robust, small, and high performance HTTP and reverse proxy
server.
</p>
</background>
<description>
<p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in nginx:</p>
<ul>
<li>The TLS protocol does not properly handle session renegotiation
requests (CVE-2009-3555).
</li>
<li>The "ngx_http_process_request_headers()" function in ngx_http_parse.c
could cause a NULL pointer dereference (CVE-2009-3896).
</li>
<li>nginx does not properly sanitize user input for the the WebDAV COPY
or MOVE methods (CVE-2009-3898).
</li>
<li>The "ngx_resolver_copy()" function in ngx_resolver.c contains a
boundary error which could cause a heap-based buffer overflow
(CVE-2011-4315).
</li>
<li>nginx does not properly parse HTTP header responses which could
expose sensitive information (CVE-2012-1180).
</li>
</ul>
</description>
<impact type="high">
<p>A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the nginx process, cause a Denial of Service condition,
create or overwrite arbitrary files, or obtain sensitive information.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>All nginx users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=www-servers/nginx-1.0.14"
</code>
</resolution>
