+  <synopsis>
+    Evolution is vulnerable to format string vulnerabilities which may result
+    in remote execution of arbitrary code.

+    Evolution is a GNOME groupware application.

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Ulf Harnhammar discovered that Evolution is vulnerable to format
+    string bugs when viewing attached vCards and when displaying contact
+    information from remote LDAP servers or task list data from remote
+    servers (CAN-2005-2549). He also discovered that Evolution fails to
+    handle special calendar entries if the user switches to the Calendars
+    tab (CAN-2005-2550).
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    An attacker could attach specially crafted vCards to emails or
+    setup malicious LDAP servers or calendar entries which would trigger
+    the format string vulnerabilities when viewed or accessed from
+    Evolution. This could potentially result in the execution of arbitrary
+    code with the rights of the user running Evolution.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Evolution users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=mail-client/evolution-2.2.3-r3&quot;</code>
