+ <background>
+ <p>Echoping is a small program to test performances of a
+ remote host by sending it TCP packets.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>A boundary error exists within the “TLS_readline()” function, which
+ can be exploited to overflow a global buffer by sending an overly long
+ encrypted HTTP reply to Echoping. Also, a similar boundary error exists
+ within the “SSL_readline()” function, which can be exploited in the
+ same manner.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A remote attacker could send a specially crafted HTTP reply, possibly
+ resulting in a Denial of Service condition.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All Echoping users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
+ "&gt;=net-analyzer/echoping-6.0.2_p434"
+ </code>
