+  <title>Valgrind: Untrusted search path</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    An untrusted search path vulnerability in Valgrind might result in the
+    execution of arbitrary code.

+    <p>
+    Tavis Ormandy reported that Valgrind loads a .valgrindrc file in the
+    current working directory, executing commands specified there.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    A local attacker could prepare a specially crafted .valgrindrc file and
+    entice a user to run Valgrind from the directory containing that file,
+    resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the
+    user running Valgrind.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    Do not run "valgrind" from untrusted working directories.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Valgrind users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-util/valgrind-3.4.0"</code>
