+ Kalle Olavi Niemitalo discovered two boundary errors in fsplib code
+ included in gFTP when processing overly long directory or file names.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could trigger these vulnerabilities by enticing a
+ user to download a file with a specially crafted directory or file
+ name, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code
+ (CVE-2007-3962) or a Denial of Service (CVE-2007-3961).
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All gFTP users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-ftp/gftp-2.0.18-r6"</code>
