+    oCERT reported that the Speex library does not properly validate the
+    "mode" value it derives from Speex streams, allowing for array indexing
+    vulnerabilities inside multiple player applications. Within Gentoo,
+    xine-lib, VLC, gst-plugins-speex from the GStreamer Good Plug-ins,
+    vorbis-tools, libfishsound, Sweep, SDL_sound, and speexdec were found
+    to be vulnerable.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted Speex
+    file or network stream with an application listed above. This might
+    lead to the execution of arbitrary code with privileges of the user
+    playing the file.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Speex users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=media-libs/speex-1.2_beta3_p2"</code>
