+ <title>Motion: Execution of arbitrary code</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ Multiple vulnerabilities in Motion might result in the execution of
+ arbitrary code.

+ <affected>
+ <package name="media-video/motion" auto="yes" arch="*">
+ <unaffected range="ge">3.2.10.1</unaffected>

+ </package>
+ </affected>
+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Motion is a program that monitors the video signal from one or more
+ cameras and is able to detect motions.

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Nico Golde reported an off-by-one error within the read_client()
+ function in the webhttpd.c file, leading to a stack-based buffer
+ overflow. Stefan Cornelius (Secunia Research) reported a boundary error
+ within the same function, also leading to a stack-based buffer
+ overflow. Both vulnerabilities require that the HTTP Control interface
+ is enabled.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by sending an
+ overly long or specially crafted request to a vulnerable Motion HTTP
+ control interface, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary
+ code with the privileges of the motion user.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Motion users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=media-video/motion-3.2.10.1"</code>
