<impact type="normal">

<p>
|
|
A carefully-crafted XPM file could crash X.org, potentially allowing
|
|
the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running
|
|
the application.

</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All X.org users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose x11-base/xorg-x11</code>
