libCapsiNetwork: Denial of Service A buffer overflow in libcapsinetwork might allow remote attackers to cause a Denial of Service condition. libcapsinetwork July 10, 2015 July 11, 2015: 2 544324 remote 0.3.0-r2

libCapsiNetwork is a C++ network library to allow fast development of server daemon processes.

An off-by-one buffer overflow in libcapsinetwork network handling code is discovered.

A remote attacker could send a specially crafted request to application, that is linked with libcapsinetwork, possibly resulting in a Denial of Service condition.

There is no known workaround at this time.

Gentoo discontinued support for libCapsiNetwork. We recommend that users unmerge it:
