+  <title>Snort: Remote execution of arbitrary code</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    The Snort DCE/RPC preprocessor contains a buffer overflow that could result
+    in the remote execution of arbitrary code.

+    <p>
+    Snort is a widely deployed intrusion detection program.

+    The Snort DCE/RPC preprocessor does not properly reassemble certain
+    types of fragmented SMB and DCE/RPC packets.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker could send specially crafted fragmented SMB or
+    DCE/RPC packets, without the need to finish the TCP handshake, that
+    would trigger a stack-based buffer overflow while being reassembled.
+    This could lead to the execution of arbitrary code with the permissions
+    of the user running the Snort preprocessor.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    Disable the DCE/RPC processor by commenting the 'preprocessor dcerpc'
+    section in /etc/snort/snort.conf .
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Snort users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-analyzer/snort-2.6.1.3"</code>
