The remote Gentoo host is missing one or more security-related patches for LIVE555 Media Server, causing Denial of Service through a signedness error in the parseRTSPRequestString() function when processing short RTSP queries. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted RTSP query to the server, resulting in a crash. No known workaround exists at this time
