+ <background>
+ <p>ldns is a fast DNS library with the goal to simplify DNS programming and
+ to allow developers to easily create software conforming to current RFCs
+ and Internet drafts.

+ <description>
+ <p>ldns contains a heap-based buffer overflow in the
+ ldns_rr_new_frm_str_internal function.

+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A remote attacker could execute arbitrary code or cause a Denial of
+ Service condition with a crafted Resource Record.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All ldns users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-libs/ldns-1.6.11"
+ </code>
+
+ <p>Packages which depend on this library may need to be recompiled. Tools
+ such as revdep-rebuild may assist in identifying these packages.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>NOTE: This is a legacy GLSA. Updates for all affected architectures are
+ available since October 11, 2011. It is likely that your system is
+ already no longer affected by this issue.
