Synopsis ========
A buffer overflow vulnerability in PeerCast may allow for the remote execution of arbitrary code.
Background ==========
PeerCast is a client and server for P2P-radio networks.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 media-sound/peercast < 0.1218-r1 >= 0.1218-r1
Description ===========
Nico Golde reported a boundary error in the HTTP::getAuthUserPass() function when processing overly long HTTP Basic authentication requests.
Impact ======
A remote attacker could send a specially crafted HTTP request to the vulnerable server, possibly resulting in the remote execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All PeerCast users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-sound/peercast-0.1218-r1"
