Date: May 23, 2014
Bugs: #505948
ID: 201405-27

Synopsis
========

A vulnerability in LibYAML could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary
code or cause a Denial of Service condition.

Background
==========

LibYAML is a YAML 1.1 parser and emitter written in C.

Affected packages
=================

——————————————————————-
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
——————————————————————-
1 dev-libs/libyaml < 0.1.6 >= 0.1.6

Description
===========

The yaml_parser_scan_uri_escapes() function does not properly expand
strings passed as input, which can result in a heap-based buffer
overflow.

Impact
======

An attacker could provide a specially-crafted YAML document, which,
when parsed by LibYAML, could result in arbitrary code execution or
cause the application to crash.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All LibYAML users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge –sync
# emerge –ask –oneshot –verbose “>=dev-libs/libyaml-0.1.6”

Packages which depend on this library may need to be recompiled. Tools
such as revdep-rebuild may assist in identifying these packages.
