+ <background>
+ <p>nginx is a robust, small, and high performance HTTP and reverse proxy

+ <description>
+ <p>It was discovered that nginx did not properly handle DNS responses when
+ “resolver” directive is used.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>A remote attacker, able to provide DNS responses to a nginx instance,
+ could cause the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the
+ process or a Denial of Service condition.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All nginx users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=www-servers/nginx-1.20.1"
+ </code>
+
+ <p>All nginx mainline users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
