+  <synopsis>
+    A vulnerability when handling database input in PEAR::MDB2 allows remote
+    attackers to obtain sensitive information.

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    PEAR::MDB2 is a database abstraction layer for PHP aimed to provide a
+    common API for all supported relational database management systems. A
+    LOB ("large object") is a database field holding binary data.
+    </p>
+  </background>
+  <description>
+    <p>
+    priyadi discovered that the request to store a URL string as a LOB is
+    treated as a request to retrieve and store the contents of the URL.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    If an application using PEAR::MDB2 allows input of LOB values via a web
+    form, remote attackers could use the application as an indirect proxy
+    or obtain sensitive information, including "file://" URLs local to the
+    web server.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    As a workaround, manually filter input before storing it as a LOB in
+    PEAR::MDB2.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All PEAR::MDB2 users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-php/PEAR-MDB2-2.5.0_alpha1"</code>
