InspIRCd (Inspire IRCd) is a modular C++ IRC daemon

+
+ +

A vulnerability in InspIRCd allows DNS compression features to control + the number of overflowed bytes sent to the heap-based buffer "res[]" in + dns.cpp. +

+
+ +

A remote attacker could send specially crafted DNS responses, possibly + resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the + process or a Denial of Service condition. +

+
+ +

There is no known workaround at this time.

+
+ +

All InspIRCd users should upgrade to the latest version:

+ + + # emerge --sync + # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-irc/inspircd-2.0.5-r1" + +
