Severity: Normal Title: Motor: Execution of arbitrary code Date: August 29, 2006 Bugs: #135020 ID: 200608-27

Synopsis ========
Motor uses a vulnerable ktools library, which could lead to the execution of arbitrary code.
Background ==========
Motor is a text mode based programming environment for Linux, with a syntax highlighting feature, project manager, makefile generator, gcc and gdb front-end, and CVS integration.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 dev-util/motor < 3.4.0-r1 *>= 3.3.0-r1 >= 3.4.0-r1
Description ===========
In November 2005, Zone-H Research reported a boundary error in the ktools library in the VGETSTRING() macro of kkstrtext.h, which may cause a buffer overflow via an overly long input string.
Impact ======
A remote attacker could entice a user to use a malicious file or input, which could lead to the crash of Motor and possibly the execution of arbitrary code.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All Motor 3.3.x users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-util/motor-3.3.0-r1"
All motor 3.4.x users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-util/motor-3.4.0-r1"
