+ <synopsis>A vulnerability in NTFS-3G allows local users to gain root

+ <background>
+ <p>NTFS-3G is a stable, full-featured, read-write NTFS driver for various
+ operating systems.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>NTFS-3G is affected by the same vulnerability as reported in “GLSA
+ 201603-04” when the bundled fuse-lite implementation is used.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A local user could gain root privileges.</p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time. However, on Gentoo when the
+ “external-fuse” USE flag is set or the “suid” USE flag is not set
+ then NTFS-3G is not affected. Both of these cases are the default
+ configuration.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All NTFS-3G users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=sys-fs/ntfs3g-2016.2.22"
+ </code>
