+ <description>
+ <p>The trapezoid handling code in Pixman contains an integer underflow
+ vulnerability.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A context-dependent attacker could entice a user to open a specially
+ crafted file using an application linked against Pixman, possibly
+ resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the
+ process, or a Denial of Service condition.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All Pixman users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=x11-libs/pixman-0.32.4"
+ </code>
+
+ <p>Packages which depend on this library may need to be recompiled. Tools
+ such as revdep-rebuild may assist in identifying these packages.
