+  <title>socat: Format string vulnerability</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    socat contains a format string vulnerability that can potentially lead to
+    remote or local execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the
+    socat process.

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    socat is a multipurpose bidirectional relay, similar to netcat.

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    socat contains a syslog() based format string vulnerablility in the
+    '_msg()' function of 'error.c'. Exploitation of this bug is only
+    possible when socat is run with the '-ly' option, causing it to log
+    messages to syslog.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    Remote exploitation is possible when socat is used as a HTTP proxy
+    client and connects to a malicious server. Local privilege escalation
+    can be achieved when socat listens on a UNIX domain socket. Potential
+    execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the socat process is
+    possible with both local and remote exploitations.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    Disable logging to syslog by not using the '-ly' option when starting
+    socat.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All socat users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-misc/socat-1.4.0.3"</code>
+  </resolution>
