  script_tag(name:"insight", value:"The rsyslog packages provide an enhanced,
multi-threaded syslog daemon that supports writing to relational databases,
syslog/TCP, RFC 3195, permitted sender lists, filtering on any message part,
and fine grained output format control.

A flaw was found in the way rsyslog handled invalid log message priority
values. In certain configurations, a local attacker, or a remote attacker
able to connect to the rsyslog port, could use this flaw to crash the
rsyslog daemon. (CVE-2014-3634)

Red Hat would like to thank Rainer Gerhards of rsyslog upstream for
reporting this issue.

All rsyslog5 and rsyslog users are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. After
installing the update, the rsyslog service will be restarted automatically.");
