<p>
3proxy is a really tiny cross-platform proxy servers set, including
HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, SOCKS and POP3 support.
</p>
</background>
<description>
<p>
3proxy contains a double free vulnerability in the ftpprchild()
function, which frees param-&gt;hostname and calls the parsehostname()
function, which in turn attempts to free param-&gt;hostname again.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>
A remote attacker could send a specially crafted request to the proxy,
possibly resulting in a Denial of Service. Under typical configuration,
the scope of this vulnerability is limited to the local network.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
All 3proxy users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-proxy/3proxy-0.5.3j"</code>
</resolution>
