+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could craft a malicious playlist which, when
+ used, would result in the execution of arbitrary code with the rights
+ of the user running mpg123.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>

+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=media-sound/mpg123-0.59s-r8"</code>
