    cannot create an untrusted one.

    <p>
    An attacker could bypass the SSH client security policy and gain
    privileges by causing an X client to be treated as trusted.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All OpenSSH users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-misc/openssh-4.7"</code>
