  <impact type="normal">
    <p>A remote attacker could entice a user currently logged in into Deluge
      web UI to visit a malicious web page which uses forged requests to make
      Deluge download and install a Deluge plug-in provided by the attacker.
      The plug-in can then execute arbitrary code as the user running Deluge.

  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>All Deluge users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>

      # emerge --sync
      # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-p2p/deluge-1.3.14"
