ReportLab is an Open Source Python library for generating PDFs and graphics.
ReportLab was found to be mishandling XML documents and may evaluate the contents without checking for their safety.
A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the process or cause a Denial of Service condition.
There is no known workaround at this time.
All ReportLab users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-python/reportlab-3.5.42"
