A base64 decoding vulnerability has been discovered in vmod-digest.

Vmod-digest is a 3rd party VMOD, maintained and distributed
by Varnish Software, but since it was one of the first VMODs
and has seen very wide deployment, we consider this vulnerability
important enough to issue a VSV, even though no code maintained
by the Varnish Cache Project is involved.
