Gentoo Linux Security Weekend

Last weekend, Gentoo Linux developers a3li and keytoaster came around and with help from p-y and underling via IRC, we killed the huge backlog of open CVEs in our tracker, voted on about 100 security bugs, drafted several dozens of GLSAs and were hunting bugs on GLSAMaker2. We also had good company from (non-security) developer idl0r on saturday. 🙂

During the week, we polished up some GLSAs and since sunday, we send these (a lot more to come!):

OpenSSL: Multiple vulnerabilities
Wireshark: Multiple vulnerabilities
Bugzilla: Multiple vulnerabilities
Dovecot: Multiple vulnerabilities
GnuTLS: Multiple vulnerabilities
PHP: Multiple vulnerabilities
vsftpd: Denial of Service
feh: Multiple vulnerabilities
Conky: Privilege escalation
Wget: User-assisted file creation or overwrite
Adobe Flash Player: Multiple vulnerabilities

Thanks for helping out, everyone!

Here are some impressions:
