CVE-2014-2980

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions gnustep-base versions prior to 1.24.6

Description The issue is related to the improper handling of the file descriptor for the logger in the gdomap component of GNUstep Base. This can be exploited remotely, potentially leading to a denial of service. The exploitation may cause the service to abort when an invalid request is received.

Recommendations For versions prior to 1.24.6, update to version 1.24.6 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the gdomap service to minimize the risk of exploitation.
