<impact type="high">
|
|
<p>
|
|
An unauthenticated remote attacker could send a specially crafted
|
|
request to a vulnerable server, possibly resulting in the execution of
|
|
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Firebird.

<workaround>

There is no known workaround at this time.

All Firebird users should upgrade to the latest version:

<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-db/firebird-2.0.1"</code>
