+    <p>
+    Two stack-based buffer overflows in the read_special_escape() function
+    in src/psgen.c have been reported. Ulf Harnhammar of Secunia Research
+    discovered a vulnerability related to the "setfilename" command
+    (CVE-2008-3863), and Kees Cook of Ubuntu discovered a vulnerability
+    related to the "font" escape sequence (CVE-2008-4306).
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    An attacker could entice a user or automated system to process
+    specially crafted input with the special escapes processing enabled
+    using the "-e" option, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary
+    code.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All enscript users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=app-text/enscript-1.6.4-r4"</code>
