+    Chris Rohlf discovered that the "Gtk::MessageDialog.new()" method in
+    the file gtk/src/rbgtkmessagedialog.c does not properly sanitize the
+    "message" parameter before passing it to the gtk_message_dialog_new()
+    function.

+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker could send a specially crafted string to an
+    application using Ruby-GNOME2, possibly leading to the execution of
+    arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Ruby-GNOME2 users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-ruby/ruby-gtk2-0.16.0-r2"</code>
