+ <p>
+ libXpm is a pixmap manipulation library for the X Window System,
+ included in both X.Org and XFree86.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Several issues were discovered in libXpm, including integer
+ overflows, out-of-bounds memory accesses, insecure path traversal and
+ an endless loop.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker could craft a malicious pixmap file and entice a user
+ to use it with an application linked against libXpm. This could lead to
+ Denial of Service or arbitrary code execution.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All X.Org users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=x11-base/xorg-x11-6.7.0-r3"</code>
+ <p>
+ All XFree86 users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=x11-base/xfree-x11-4.3.0-r8"</code>
