Description:   Opened: 2008-06-15 10:48 0000
Just having 3.1.1 in portage should be enough.

The changelog mentions:
"Fixed a buffer overflow error which could have allowed a denial of service
under unusual server configurations."
I don't know if this could be seen as a security bug...

Server DoS is security relevant I think.

Eh, assign...

Looks like an old VMWare CVE-2007-0062.  Some more notes in:

Arches please test and mark stable 3.1.1 as it resolves a DoS through buffer
overflow (alledgedly can only be triggered under "unusual server
configurations").
