  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    A remote attacker could entice a user to open specially crafted input
    (e.g bookmarks) with Kazehakase, which could possibly lead to the
    execution of arbitrary code, a Denial of Service or the disclosure of
    sensitive information.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All Kazehakase users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=www-client/kazehakase-0.5.0"</code>
