Synopsis
========
A vulnerability in ZeroMQ could lead to a Denial of Service condition.
Background
==========
Looks like an embeddable networking library but acts like a concurrency framework.
Affected packages
=================
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 net-libs/zeromq < 4.3.3 >= 4.3.3
Description
===========
It was discovered that ZeroMQ does not properly handle connecting peers
before a handshake is completed.
Impact
======
An unauthenticated remote attacker able to connect to a ZeroMQ
endpoint, even with CURVE encryption/authentication enabled, can cause
a Denial of Service condition.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All ZeroMQ users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-libs/zeromq-4.3.3"
