+ <background>
+ <p>
+ mod_auth_pgsql is an Apache2 module that allows user authentication
+ against a PostgreSQL database.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ The error logging functions of mod_auth_pgsql fail to validate certain
+ strings before passing them to syslog, resulting in format string
+ vulnerabilities.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>
+ An unauthenticated remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities
+ to execute arbitrary code with the rights of the user running the
+ Apache2 server by sending specially crafted login names.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All mod_auth_pgsql users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=www-apache/mod_auth_pgsql-2.0.3&quot;</code>
