Synopsis
========

Multiple vulnerabilities were found in PHP, the worst of which lead to
remote execution of arbitrary code.

Background
==========

PHP is a widely-used general-purpose scripting language that is
especially suited for Web development and can be embedded into HTML.

Affected packages
=================

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 dev-lang/php < 5.3.15 >= 5.3.15
< 5.4.5 >= 5.4.5
-------------------------------------------------------------------
# Package 1 only applies to users of these architectures:
arm

Description
===========

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in PHP. Please review the
CVE identifiers referenced below for details.

Impact
======

A remote attacker could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of
the process, cause a Denial of Service condition, obtain sensitive
information, create arbitrary files, conduct directory traversal
attacks, bypass protection mechanisms, or perform further attacks with
unspecified impact.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All PHP users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-lang/php-5.3.15"

All PHP users on ARM should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-lang/php-5.4.5"

Synopsis
========

Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in BIND, the worst of which
may allow remote Denial of Service.

Background
==========

BIND is the Berkeley Internet Name Domain Server.

Affected packages
=================

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 net-dns/bind < 9.9.1_p3 >= 9.9.1_p3

Description
===========

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in BIND:

* Domain names are not properly revoked due to an error in the cache
update policy (CVE-2012-1033).
* BIND accepts records with zero-length RDATA fields (CVE-2012-1667).
* An assertion failure from the failing-query cache could occur when
DNSSEC validation is enabled (CVE-2012-3817).
* A memory leak may occur under high TCP query loads (CVE-2012-3868).
* An assertion error can occur when a query is performed for a record
with RDATA greater than 65535 bytes (CVE-2012-4244).

Impact
======

A remote attacker may be able to cause a Denial of Service condition or
keep domain names resolvable after it has been deleted from
registration.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All BIND users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-dns/bind-9.9.1_p3"

Synopsis
========

Multiple vulnerabilities in libTIFF could result in execution of
arbitrary code or Denial of Service.

Background
==========

libTIFF provides support for reading and manipulating TIFF (Tagged
Image File Format) images.

Affected packages
=================

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 media-libs/tiff < 4.0.2-r1 *>= 3.9.5-r2
>= 4.0.2-r1

Description
===========

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in libTIFF. Please review
the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.

Impact
======

A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted TIFF
file with an application making use of libTIFF, possibly resulting in
execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the
application or a Denial of Service condition.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All libTIFF 4.0 users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/tiff-4.0.2-r1"

All libTIFF 3.9 users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/tiff-3.9.5-r2"
