+    Konversation is a user-friendly IRC client for KDE.

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Wouter Coekaerts has discovered three vulnerabilities within
+    Konversation:
+    </p>
+    <ul>
+    <li>The Server::parseWildcards function, which
+    is used by the "Quick Buttons", does not properly handle variable
+    expansion (CAN-2005-0129).</li>
+    <li>Perl scripts included with
+    Konversation do not properly escape shell metacharacters
+    (CAN-2005-0130).</li>
+    <li>The 'Nick' and 'Password' fields in the Quick
+    Connect dialog can be easily confused (CAN-2005-0131).</li>
+    </ul>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A malicious server could create specially-crafted channels, which
+    would exploit certain flaws in Konversation, potentially leading to the
+    execution of shell commands. A user could also unintentionally input
+    their password into the 'Nick' field in the Quick Connect dialog,
+    exposing his password to IRC users, and log files.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Konversation users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-irc/konversation-0.15.1"</code>
+  </resolution>
