<affected>
<package name="net-fs/cifs-utils" auto="yes" arch="*">

<background>
<p>The LinuxCIFS utils are a collection of tools for managing Linux CIFS
Client Filesystems.
</p>
</background>
<description>
<p>A stack-based buffer overflow was discovered in cifskey.c or cifscreds.c
in LinuxCIFS, as used in “pam_cifscreds.”
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause an
unspecified impact.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>Don’t use LinuxCIFS utils’ “cifscreds” PAM module. In Gentoo,
LinuxCIFS utils’ PAM support is disabled by default unless the
“pam” USE flag is enabled.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>All LinuxCIFS utils users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-fs/cifs-utils-6.4"
</code>
</resolution>
