 Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                       MDVSA-2011:134-1
 http://www.mandriva.com/security/
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Package : rsyslog
 Date    : September 17, 2011
 Affected: 2011.
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 A vulnerability was discovered and corrected in rsyslog:
 
 Stack-based buffer overflow in the parseLegacySyslogMsg function
 in tools/syslogd.c in rsyslogd in rsyslog 4.6.x before 4.6.8 and
 5.2.0 through 5.8.4 might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of
 service (application exit) via a long TAG in a legacy syslog message
 (CVE-2011-3200).
 
 The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.

 Update:

 rsyslog was upgraded to the 5.8.5 version for Mandriva Linux 2011
 that brings additional fixes as well.
