+ <title>Kaffeine, gxine: Remotely exploitable buffer overflow</title>

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ KF of Secure Network Operations has discovered an overflow that occurs
+ during the Content-Type header processing of Kaffeine. The vulnerable
+ code in Kaffeine is reused from gxine, making gxine vulnerable as well.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker could create a specially-crafted Content-type header from a
+ malicious HTTP server, and crash a user's instance of Kaffeine or
+ gxine, potentially allowing the execution of arbitrary code.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Kaffeine users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=media-video/kaffeine-0.4.3b-r1&quot;</code>
+ <p>
+ All gxine users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=media-video/gxine-0.3.3-r1&quot;</code>
