+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Nemo discovered an off-by-one error leading to a heap overflow in
+    irssi's event_wallops() parsing function.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker might entice a user to connect to a malicious IRC
+    server, use a man-in-the-middle attack to redirect a user to such a
+    server or use ircop rights to send a specially crafted WALLOPS message,
+    which might result in the execution of arbitrary code with the
+    privileges of the user running irssi.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All irssi users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-irc/irssi-0.8.13-r1"</code>
