+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Thomas Walpuski discovered a buffer overflow that may be exploitable by
+ sending a specially crafted packet. In order to exploit the vulnerable
+ code, an attacker would need to fake the establishment of an L2TP tunnel.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker may be able to execute arbitrary code with the privileges
+ of the user running l2tpd.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround for this vulnerability.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All users are recommended to upgrade to the latest stable version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge sync
+
+ # emerge -pv "&gt;=net-l2tpd-0.69-r2"
+ # emerge "&gt;=net-l2tpd-0.69-r2"</code>
