Synopsis
========

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in nginx, the worst of which
may allow execution of arbitrary code.

Background
==========

nginx is a robust, small, and high performance HTTP and reverse proxy
server.

Affected packages
=================

    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     Package              /     Vulnerable     /            Unaffected
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
  1  www-servers/nginx            < 1.0.14                  >= 1.0.14

Description
===========

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in nginx:

* The TLS protocol does not properly handle session renegotiation
  requests (CVE-2009-3555).
* The "ngx_http_process_request_headers()" function in ngx_http_parse.c
  could cause a NULL pointer dereference (CVE-2009-3896).
* nginx does not properly sanitize user input for the the WebDAV COPY
  or MOVE methods (CVE-2009-3898).
* The "ngx_resolver_copy()" function in ngx_resolver.c contains a
  boundary error which could cause a heap-based buffer overflow
  (CVE-2011-4315).
* nginx does not properly parse HTTP header responses which could
  expose sensitive information (CVE-2012-1180).

Impact
======

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.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All nginx users should upgrade to the latest version:

  # emerge --sync
  # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-servers/nginx-1.0.14"
