+ Matt Lewis of Google reported multiple integer overflows in the
+ libsvn_delta library, possibly leading to heap-based buffer overflows.

+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker with commit access could exploit this vulnerability
+ by sending a specially crafted commit to a Subversion server, or a
+ remote attacker could entice a user to check out or update a repository
+ from a malicious Subversion server, possibly resulting in the execution
+ of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the server or
+ client.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Subversion users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-util/subversion-1.6.4"</code>
