    Alexey Dobriyan discovered several format string vulnerabilities in
    OpenTTD.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="high">
    <p>
    A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to crash the
    OpenTTD server or client and possibly execute arbitrary code with the
    rights of the user running OpenTTD.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There are no known workarounds at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All OpenTTD users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=games-simulation/openttd-0.4.0.1-r1"</code>
  </resolution>
