libwww is a collection of Perl modules providing a consistent interface + to the World-Wide Web. +

+
+ +

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in libwww-perl. Please + review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details. +

+
+ +

A remote attacker could entice a user to download a specially-crafted + file with an application linked against libwww-perl, which could result + in overwritten files or arbitrary code execution by writing to a dotfile + in the user’s home directory (such as .bashrc). Additionally, a remote + attacker could perform a Man-in-the-Middle attack. +

+
+ +

There is no known workaround at this time.

+
+ +

All libwww-perl users should upgrade to the latest version:

+ + + # emerge --sync + # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-perl/libwww-perl-6.30.0" + + +

NOTE: This is a legacy GLSA. Updates for all affected architectures are + available since December 18, 2011. It is likely that your system is + already no longer affected by this issue. +
