<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
An attacker could entice a user to process specially crafted regular
|
|
expressions with Chicken, which could possibly lead to the execution of
|
|
arbitrary code, a Denial of Service or the disclosure of sensitive
|
|
information.
|

</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|

<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-scheme/chicken-3.1.0"</code>
