+  <title>util-linux: Arbitrary code execution</title>
+  <synopsis>A vulnerability was discovered in util-linux, which could
+    potentially lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

+  <background>
+    <p>util-linux is a suite of Linux programs including mount and umount,
+      programs used to mount and unmount filesystems.
+    </p>
+  </background>
+  <description>
+    <p>A command injection flaw was discovered in util-linux’s “blkid”
+      utility. It uses caching files (/dev/.blkid.tab or /run/blkid/blkid.tab)
+      to store info about the UUID, LABEL etc. it finds on certain devices.
+      However, it does not strip ‘”’ character, so it can be confused to
+      build variable names containing shell metacharacters, which it would
+      usually encode inside the value.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>A local attacker could create a specially crafted partition label
+      containing arbitrary code which would get executed when the “blkid”
+      utility processes that value.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>All util-linux users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+    
+    <code>
+      # emerge --sync
+      # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=sys-apps/util-linux-2.26"
+    </code>
