36 <p>ldns is a fast DNS library with the goal to simplify DNS programming and
37 to allow developers to easily create software conforming to current RFCs
38 and Internet drafts.

41 <description>
42 <p>ldns contains a heap-based buffer overflow in the
43 ldns_rr_new_frm_str_internal function.

46 <impact type="normal">
47 <p>A remote attacker could execute arbitrary code or cause a Denial of
48 Service condition with a crafted Resource Record.

50 </impact>
51 <workaround>
52 <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
53 </workaround>
54 <resolution>
55 <p>All ldns users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>

57 <code>
58 # emerge --sync
59 # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-libs/ldns-1.6.11"
60 </code>

62 <p>Packages which depend on this library may need to be recompiled. Tools
63 such as revdep-rebuild may assist in identifying these packages.

66 <p>NOTE: This is a legacy GLSA. Updates for all affected architectures are
67 available since October 11, 2011. It is likely that your system is
68 already no longer affected by this issue.
