+  <title>Multiple Ralink wireless drivers: Execution of arbitrary code</title>

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    All listed packages are external kernel modules that provide drivers
+    for multiple Ralink devices. ralink-rt61 is released by ralinktech.com,
+    the other packages by the rt2x00.serialmonkey.com project.

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Aviv reported an integer overflow in multiple Ralink wireless card
+    drivers when processing a probe request packet with a long SSID,
+    possibly related to an integer signedness error.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    A physically proximate attacker could send specially crafted packets to
+    a user who has wireless networking enabled, possibly resulting in the
+    execution of arbitrary code with root privileges.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    Unload the kernel modules.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All external kernel modules have been masked and we recommend that
+    users unmerge those drivers. The Linux mainline kernel has equivalent
+    support for these devices and the vulnerability has been resolved in
+    stable versions of sys-kernel/gentoo-sources.
+    </p>
