+  <title>Vim, gVim: Remote execution of arbitrary code</title>
+  <synopsis>A vulnerability has been found in Vim and gVim concerning how
+    certain modeline options are treated.

+  <background>
+    <p>Vim is an efficient, highly configurable improved version of the classic
+      ‘vi’ text editor. gVim is the GUI version of Vim.
+    </p>
+  </background>
+  <description>
+    <p>Vim and gVim do not properly validate values for the ‘filetype’,
+      ‘syntax’, and ‘keymap’ options.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted file
+      using Vim/gVim with certain modeline options enabled possibly resulting
+      in execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the process.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>Disabling modeline support in .vimrc by adding “set nomodeline” will
+      prevent exploitation of this flaw. By default, modeline is enabled for
+      ordinary users but disabled for root.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>All Vim users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+    
+    <code>
+      # emerge --sync
+      # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=app-editors/vim-8.0.0106"
+    </code>
+    
+    <p>All gVim users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+    
+    <code>
+      # emerge --sync
+      # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=app-editors/gvim-8.0.0106"
+    </code>
