The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200904-11 (Tor: Multiple vulnerabilities)

Theo de Raadt reported that the application does not properly drop     privileges to the primary groups of the user specified via the 'User'     configuration option (CVE-2008-5397).
rovv reported that the 'ClientDNSRejectInternalAddresses' configuration     option is not always enforced (CVE-2008-5398).
Ilja van Sprundel reported a heap-corruption vulnerability that might     be remotely triggerable on some platforms (CVE-2009-0414).
It has been reported that incomplete IPv4 addresses are treated as     valid, violating the specification (CVE-2009-0939).
Three unspecified vulnerabilities have also been reported     (CVE-2009-0936, CVE-2009-0937, CVE-2009-0938).

Impact :

A local attacker could escalate privileges by leveraging unintended     supplementary group memberships of the Tor process. A remote attacker     could exploit these vulnerabilities to cause a heap corruption with     unknown impact and attack vectors, to cause a Denial of Service via CPU     consuption or daemon crash, and to weaken anonymity provided by the     service.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.
