The Apache Portable Runtime (aka APR) provides a set of APIs for |
44 |
creating platform-independent applications. The Apache Portable Runtime |
45 |
Utility Library (aka APR-Util) provides an interface to functionality |
46 |
such as XML parsing, string matching and databases connections. |

<p> |
51 |
Matt Lewis reported multiple Integer overflows in the apr_rmm_malloc(), |
52 |
apr_rmm_calloc(), and apr_rmm_realloc() functions in misc/apr_rmm.c of |
53 |
APR-Util and in memory/unix/apr_pools.c of APR, both occurring when |
54 |
aligning memory blocks. |

<impact type="normal"> |
58 |
<p> |
59 |
A remote attacker could entice a user to connect to a malicious server |
60 |
with software that uses the APR or act as a malicious client to a |
61 |
server that uses the APR (such as Subversion or Apache servers), |
62 |
possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the |
63 |
privileges of the user running the application. |
64 |

<workaround> |

<p> |

There is no known workaround at this time. |

<p> |
73 |
All Apache Portable Runtime users should upgrade to the latest version: |
74 |
</p> |
75 |
<code> |
76 |
# emerge --sync |
77 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose =dev-libs/apr-1.3.8</code> |

All APR Utility Library users should upgrade to the latest version: |

# emerge --sync |
83 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose =dev-libs/apr-util-1.3.9</code> |
