+  <title>Webmin, Usermin: Format string vulnerability</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    Webmin and Usermin are vulnerable to a format string vulnerability which
+    may lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

+    <p>
+    Webmin is a web-based interface for Unix-like systems. Usermin is
+    a simplified version of Webmin designed for use by normal users rather
+    than system administrators.
+    </p>

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Jack Louis discovered that the Webmin and Usermin "miniserv.pl"
+    web server component is vulnerable to a Perl format string
+    vulnerability. Login with the supplied username is logged via the Perl
+    "syslog" facility in an unsafe manner.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker can trigger this vulnerability via a specially
+    crafted username containing format string data. This can be exploited
+    to consume a large amount of CPU and memory resources on a vulnerable
+    system, and possibly to execute arbitrary code of the attacker's choice
+    with the permissions of the user running Webmin.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Webmin users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-admin/webmin-1.250&quot;</code>
+    <p>
+    All Usermin users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-admin/usermin-1.180&quot;</code>
