Synopsis ========
Two vulnerabilities in LimeWire can be exploited to disclose sensitive information.
Background ==========
LimeWire is a Java peer-to-peer client compatible with the Gnutella file-sharing protocol.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 net-p2p/limewire < 4.8.1 >= 4.8.1
Description ===========
Two input validation errors were found in the handling of Gnutella GET requests (CAN-2005-0788) and magnet requests (CAN-2005-0789).
Impact ======
A remote attacker can craft a specific Gnutella GET request or use directory traversal on magnet requests to read arbitrary files on the system with the rights of the user running LimeWire.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All LimeWire users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-p2p/limewire-4.8.1"
