+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Ulf Harnhammar discovered a format string bug in Weex that can be
+ triggered when it is first run (or when its cache files are rebuilt,
+ using the -r option).
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker could setup a malicious FTP server which, when
+ accessed using Weex, could trigger the format string bug and end up
+ executing arbitrary code with the rights of the user running Weex.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Weex users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-ftp/weex-2.6.1.5-r1"</code>
