<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted
|
|
document using Graphite or an application linked against Graphite
|
|
library, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the
|
|
privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition.

<workaround>
|
|
<p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>

</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|

<p>All Graphite users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
