  <description>
    <p>
    FFmpeg contains buffer overflows in the AVI processing code.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    An attacker could trigger the buffer overflows by enticing a user to
    load a specially crafted AVI file in an application using the FFmpeg
    library. This might result in the execution of arbitrary code in the
    context of the running application.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All FFmpeg users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20060530"</code>
