+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could entice a user to run a zziplib function with an
+ overly long string as an argument which would trigger the buffer
+ overflow and may lead to the execution of arbitrary code.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All zziplib users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=dev-libs/zziplib-0.13.49&quot;</code>
