<title>Heartbeat: Denial of Service</title>
<synopsis>
Heartbeat is vulnerable to a Denial of Service which can be triggered by a
remote attacker without authentication.
</synopsis>
<product type="ebuild">heartbeat</product>
<announced>August 24, 2006</announced>

<package name="sys-cluster/heartbeat" auto="yes" arch="*">
<unaffected range="ge">2.0.7</unaffected>

<p>
Heartbeat is a component of the High-Availability Linux project. It is
used to perform death-of-node detection, communications and cluster
management.

<description>
<p>
Yan Rong Ge discovered that the peel_netstring() function in
cl_netstring.c does not validate the "length" parameter of user input,
which can lead to an out-of-bounds memory access when processing
certain Heartbeat messages (CVE-2006-3121). Furthermore an unspecified
local DoS issue was fixed (CVE-2006-3815).
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>
By sending a malicious UDP Heartbeat message, even before
authentication, a remote attacker can crash the master control process
of the cluster.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
All Heartbeat users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose sys-cluster/heartbeat</code>
</resolution>
