+ <background>
+ <p>nginx is a robust, small, and high performance HTTP and reverse proxy
+ server.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in nginx:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>The TLS protocol does not properly handle session renegotiation
+ requests (CVE-2009-3555).
+ </li>
+ <li>The "ngx_http_process_request_headers()" function in ngx_http_parse.c
+ could cause a NULL pointer dereference (CVE-2009-3896).
+ </li>
+ <li>nginx does not properly sanitize user input for the the WebDAV COPY
+ or MOVE methods (CVE-2009-3898).
+ </li>
+ <li>The "ngx_resolver_copy()" function in ngx_resolver.c contains a
+ boundary error which could cause a heap-based buffer overflow
+ (CVE-2011-4315).
+ </li>
+ <li>nginx does not properly parse HTTP header responses which could
+ expose sensitive information (CVE-2012-1180).
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with the
+ privileges of the nginx process, cause a Denial of Service condition,
+ create or overwrite arbitrary files, or obtain sensitive information.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All nginx users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=www-servers/nginx-1.0.14"
+ </code>
+
