+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Multiple memory corruption vulnerabilities have been found in the
+    ProcDbeGetVisualInfo() and the ProcDbeSwapBuffers() of the DBE
+    extension, and ProcRenderAddGlyphs() in the Render extension.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A local attacker could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of
+    the user running the X server, typically root.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    Disable the DBE extension by removing the "Load dbe" directive in the
+    Module section of xorg.conf, and explicitly disable the Render
+    extension with ' Option "RENDER" "disable" ' in the Extensions section.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+    Note: This could affect the functionality of some applications.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All X.Org X server users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=x11-base/xorg-server-1.1.1-r4"</code>
+  </resolution>
