    Jabber server.

  </background>
  <description>
    <p>
    Openfire's connection manager in the file ConnectionManagerImpl.java
    cannot handle clients that fail to read messages, and has no limit on
    their session's send buffer.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    Remote authenticated attackers could trigger large outgoing queues
    without reading messages, causing a Denial of Service.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All Openfire users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-im/openfire-3.5.0"</code>
