+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker could entice a user or automated system to extract a
+    specially crafted tar archive, overwriting files at arbitrary locations
+    outside of the specified directory.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Archive::Tar users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=perl-core/Archive-Tar-1.40"</code>
