+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Python 2.3 includes a copy of PCRE which is vulnerable to an integer
+    overflow vulnerability, leading to a buffer overflow.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by tricking a vulnerable
+    Python application to compile a regular expressions, which could
+    possibly lead to the execution of arbitrary code, a Denial of Service
+    or the disclosure of sensitive information.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Python 2.3 users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-lang/python-2.3.6-r4"</code>
