Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2014-11-20 13:49:57 UTC
From ${URL} :

It was reported that Icecast could possibly leak the contents of on-connect scripts, which may 
contain sensitive information. This issue has been fixed in the 2.4.1 release:

"Fix on-connect and on-disconnect script STDIN/STDOUT/STDERR corruption due to shared file 
descriptors."

CVE-2014-9018 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2014-9018):
  Icecast before 2.4.1 transmits the output of the on-connect script, which
  might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, related to
  shared file descriptors.
