Synopsis
========

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in GNU Libtasn1, the worst of
which may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

Background
==========

A library that provides Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1, as
specified by the X.680 ITU-T recommendation) parsing and structures
management, and Distinguished Encoding Rules (DER, as per X.690)
encoding and decoding functions.

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

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 dev-libs/libtasn1 < 4.12-r1 >= 4.12-r1

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

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in GNU Libtasn1. Please
review the referenced CVE identifiers for details.

Impact
======

A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the process, cause a Denial of Service condition, or have
other unspecified impacts.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All GNU Libtasn1 users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-libs/libtasn1-4.12-r1"

Packages which depend on this library may need to be recompiled. Tools
such as revdep-rebuild may assist in identifying some of these
packages.
