<p>
|
|
LimeWire is a Java peer-to-peer client compatible with the
|
|
Gnutella file-sharing protocol.
|
|
</p>
|
|

|
|
<description>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Two input validation errors were found in the handling of Gnutella
|
|
GET requests (CAN-2005-0788) and magnet requests (CAN-2005-0789).
|
|
</p>
|
|
</description>
|
|
<impact type="low">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker can craft a specific Gnutella GET request or use
|
|
directory traversal on magnet requests to read arbitrary files on the
|
|
system with the rights of the user running LimeWire.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All LimeWire users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-p2p/limewire-4.8.1"</code>
