+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    An attacker might be able to exploit these vulnerabilities to crash
+    Ethereal or execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user
+    running Ethereal, which could be the root user.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Ethereal users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-analyzer/ethereal-0.99.0"</code>
