GNU GLOBAL is a source code tagging system that works the same way across diverse environments, such as Emacs editor, Vi editor, Less viewer, Bash shell, various web browsers, etc.
A vulnerability was found in an undocumented function of gozilla.
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted URL using GNU GLOBAL, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition.
There is no known workaround at this time.
All GNU GLOBAL users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-util/global-6.6.4"
