+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Hamid Ebadi discovered a boundary error in the
+ intT1_EnvGetCompletePath() function which can lead to a buffer overflow
+ when processing an overly long filename.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could entice a user to open a font file with a
+ specially crafted filename, possibly leading to the execution of
+ arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application
+ using T1Lib.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All T1Lib users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=media-libs/t1lib-5.0.2-r1"</code>
