A vulnerability in ZeroMQ might allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code.
| Package | net-libs/zeromq on all architectures |
|---|---|
| Affected versions | < 4.3.2 |
| Unaffected versions | >= 4.3.2 |
Looks like an embeddable networking library but acts like a concurrency framework.
A buffer overflow was discovered in ZeroMQ.
An attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the process or cause a Denial of Service condition.
There is no known workaround at this time.
All ZeroMQ users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-libs/zeromq-4.3.2"
