    <package name="www-servers/lighttpd" auto="yes" arch="*">
      <unaffected range="ge">1.4.18-r2</unaffected>

    <p>
    lighttpd is a lightweight high-performance web server.
    </p>
  </background>
  <description>
    <p>
    lighttpd contains a calculation error when allocating the global file
    descriptor array (CVE-2008-0983). Furthermore, it sends the source of a
    CGI script instead of returning a 500 error (Internal Server Error)
    when the fork() system call fails (CVE-2008-1111).
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to cause a Denial
    of Service or gain the source of a CGI script.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All lighttpd users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=www-servers/lighttpd-1.4.18-r2&quot;</code>
  </resolution>
