+ <p>
+ Adriano Lima and Ramon de Carvalho Valle reported that functions
+ isc_attach_database() and isc_create_database() do not perform proper
+ boundary checking when processing their input.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could send specially crafted requests to the Firebird
+ server on TCP port 3050, possibly resulting in the execution of
+ arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Firebird
+ (usually firebird).
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Firebird users should upgrade to the latest version:

+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=dev-db/firebird-2.0.3.12981.0-r2&quot;</code>
