Synopsis ========
Cherokee contains a format string vulnerability that could lead to denial of service or the execution of arbitary code.
Background ==========
Cherokee is an extra-light web server.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 www-servers/cherokee <= 0.4.17 >= 0.4.17.1
Description ===========
Florian Schilhabel from the Gentoo Linux Security Audit Team found a format string vulnerability in the cherokee_logger_ncsa_write_string() function.
Impact ======
Using a specially crafted URL when authenticating via auth_pam, a malicious user may be able to crash the server or execute arbitrary code on the target machine with permissions of the user running Cherokee.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All Cherokee users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-servers/cherokee-0.4.17.1"
Availability ============
This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website:
