+ <affected>
+ <package name="www-servers/apache" auto="yes" arch="*">

+ The Apache HTTP server is one of the most popular web servers on the
+ internet. mod_include is an Apache module to handle Server Side Includes
+ (SSI).
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ A possible buffer overflow exists in the get_tag() function of
+ mod_include.c.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ If Server Side Includes (SSI) are enabled, a local attacker may be able to
+ run arbitrary code with the rights of an httpd child process by making use
+ of a specially-crafted document with malformed SSI.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Apache users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-servers/apache-1.3.32-r1"</code>
+ </resolution>
