Synopsis
========
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Mumble, the worst of which
could lead to arbitrary code execution.
Background
==========
Mumble is low-latency voice chat software intended for use with gaming.
Affected packages
=================
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 media-sound/mumble < 1.2.6 >= 1.2.6
Description
===========
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Mumble:
* A crafted length prefix value can trigger a heap-based buffer
overflow or NULL pointer dereference in the
opus_packet_get_samples_per_frame function (CVE-2014-0044)
* A crafted packet can trigger an error in the opus_decode_float
function, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2014-0045)
* A crafted SVG referencing local files can lead to resource exhaustion
or hangs (CVE-2014-3755)
* Mumble does not properly escape HTML in some external strings before
displaying them (CVE-2014-3756)
Impact
======
A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with the
privileges of the process or cause a Denial of Service condition.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All Mumble users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-sound/mumble-1.2.6"

Title: Echoping: Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities
Date: June 06, 2014
Bugs: #349569
ID: 201406-07
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Synopsis
========
A buffer overflow in Echoping might allow remote attackers to cause a
Denial of Service condition.
Background
==========
Echoping is a small program to test performances of a
remote host by sending it TCP packets.
Affected packages
=================
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 net-analyzer/echoping < 6.0.2_p434 >= 6.0.2_p434
Description
===========
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.
Impact
======
A remote attacker could send a specially crafted HTTP reply, possibly
resulting in a Denial of Service condition.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All Echoping users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot -v ">=net-analyzer/echoping-6.0.2_p434"
