+ <background>
+ <p>Tor is an implementation of second generation Onion Routing, a
+ connection-oriented anonymizing communication service.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Tor:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>When configured as client or bridge, Tor uses the same TLS
+ certificate chain for all outgoing connections (CVE-2011-2768).
+ </li>
+ <li>When configured as a bridge, Tor relays can distinguish incoming
+ bridge connections from client connections (CVE-2011-2769).
+ </li>
+ <li>An error in or/buffers.c could result in a heap-based buffer overflow
+ (CVE-2011-2778).
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code or cause a
+ Denial of Service. Furthermore, a remote relay the user is directly
+ connected to may be able to disclose anonymous information about that
+ user or enumerate bridges in the user's connection.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All Tor users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-misc/tor-0.2.2.35"
+ </code>
