+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted link
+ using Gajim, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the
+ privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition. Furthermore,
+ a remote attacker could use a specially crafted Jabber ID, possibly
+ resulting in execution of arbitrary SQL statements.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>A local attacker could perform symlink attacks to overwrite arbitrary
+ files with the privileges of the user running the application.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All Gajim users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-im/gajim-0.15-r1"
+ </code>
