| Roland Clobus discovered that the Pioneers server may free sessions |
| objects while they are still in use, resulting in access to invalid |
| memory zones (CVE-2007-5933). Bas Wijnen discovered an error when |
| closing connections which can lead to a failed assertion |
| (CVE-2007-6010). |
| </p> |
| </description> |
| <impact type="normal"> |
| <p> |
| A remote attacker could send specially crafted data to the vulnerable |
| server, resulting in a Denial of Service. |
| </p> |
| </impact> |
| <workaround> |
| <p> |
| There is no known workaround at this time. |
| </p> |
| </workaround> |
| <resolution> |
| <p> |
| All Pioneers users should upgrade to the latest version: |
| </p> |
| <code> |
| # emerge --sync |
| # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=games-board/pioneers-0.11.3-r1"</code> |
