Description Marc-Éric Dupuis 2004-02-10 13:41:55 UTC 
As can be seen on the page of monkeyd, versions prior to 8.2 are vulnerable to a DoS attack. Simply copying the ebuild from monkeyd-0.8.0.ebuild to monkeyd-0.8.2.ebuild and emerging the new ebuild works perfectly.

0.8.2 is now in cvs and the GLSA has been sent to plasmaroo for processing
Comment 2 Tim Yamin (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-02-11 13:24:24 UTC 
GLSA is out: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.announce/286

Thanks!
