Description Alex Legler (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2009-06-12 19:18:10 UTC
From Secunia:

A vulnerability has been reported in Git, which can be exploited by
malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).

The vulnerability is caused due to an infinite loop when parsing
certain additional request parameters. This can be exploited to cause
a high CPU load by sending specially crafted requests to an affected
git-daemon.

The vulnerability is reported in versions 1.4.4.5 through 1.6.3.2.
Other versions may also be affected.

Comment 2 Alex Legler (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2009-06-19 08:49:44 UTC
CVE-2009-2108 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-2108):
  git-daemon in git 1.4.4.5 through 1.6.3 allows remote attackers to
  cause a denial of service (infinite loop and CPU consumption) via a
  request containing extra unrecognized arguments.

Comment 3 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2009-06-22 20:37:49 UTC
1.6.3.3 in the tree now.
1.6.3.2 had the vuln as well per Secunia.

Comment 7 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2009-06-25 19:48:03 UTC
fauli: you ignored the warning at the top of the src_test block:
ewarn "You should retest with FEATURES=userpriv!"
Comment 8 Christian Faulhammer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-06-26 11:14:57 UTC
It still fails with all USE flags enabled, else it runs fine with FEATURES=userpriv...should I attach the build.log?
Comment 9 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2009-06-26 18:53:15 UTC
fauli: looks like I need to make even more of it depend on FEATURES=userpriv being used.

Since it works w/ FEATURES=userpriv and all the USE flags together, you can mark stable in the meantime, i'll tweak the ebuild to require userpriv shortly.
