+  <title>Multiple Security Vulnerabilities in Monit</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    A denial of service and a buffer overflow vulnerability have been found in
+    Monit.
+  </synopsis>
+  <product type="ebuild">app-admin/monit</product>

+  <affected>
+    <package name="app-admin/monit" auto="yes" arch="*">
+      <unaffected range="ge">4.2</unaffected>
+      <vulnerable range="le">4.1</vulnerable>
+    </package>
+  </affected>
+  <background>
+    <p>
+    Monit is a system administration utility that allows management and
+    monitoring of processes, files, directories and devices on a Unix
+    system.
+    </p>
+  </background>
+  <description>
+    <p>
+    A denial of service may occur due to Monit not sanitizing remotely
+    supplied HTTP parameters before passing them to memory allocation
+    functions. This could allow an attacker to cause an unexpected
+    condition that could lead to the Monit daemon crashing.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    An overly long http request method may cause a buffer overflow due to
+    Monit performing insufficient bounds checking when handling HTTP
+    requests.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    An attacker may crash the Monit daemon to create a denial of service
+    condition or cause a buffer overflow that would allow arbitrary code to
+    be executed with root privileges.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    A workaround is not currently known for this issue. All users are
+    advised to upgrade to the latest version of the affected package.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    Monit users should upgrade to version 4.2 or later:
+    </p>
+    <code> 
+    # emerge sync
+    
+    # emerge -pv "&gt;=app-admin/monit-4.2"
+    # emerge "&gt;=app-admin/monit-4.2"</code>
