libCapsiNetwork is a C++ network library to allow fast development of server daemon processes.

An off-by-one buffer overflow in libcapsinetwork network handling code is discovered.

A remote attacker could send a specially crafted request to application, that is linked with libcapsinetwork, possibly resulting in a Denial of Service condition.

There is no known workaround at this time.

Gentoo discontinued support for libCapsiNetwork. We recommend that users unmerge it:

# emerge --unmerge "net-libs/libcapsinetwork"
