Synopsis ========
sharutils contains two buffer overflow vulnerabilities that could lead to arbitrary code execution.
Background ==========
sharutils contains utilities to manage shell archives.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 app-arch/sharutils <= 4.2.1-r9 >= 4.2.1-r10
Description ===========
sharutils contains two buffer overflows. Ulf Harnhammar discovered a buffer overflow in shar.c, where the length of data returned by the wc command is not checked. Florian Schilhabel discovered another buffer overflow in unshar.c.
Impact ======
An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code as the user running one of the sharutils programs.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All sharutils users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge sync
# emerge -pv ">=app-arch/sharutils-4.2.1-r10" # emerge ">=app-arch/sharutils-4.2.1-r10"
