GNU Wget is a free software package for retrieving files using HTTP, HTTPS and FTP, the most widely-used Internet protocols.
A buffer overflow was discovered in GNU’s Wget.
An attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the process or cause a Denial of Service condition.
There is no known workaround at this time.
All GNU Wget users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-misc/wget-1.20.3"
OS | Version | Architecture | Package | Version | Filename |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Gentoo | any | all | net-misc/wget | < 1.20.3 | UNKNOWN |
