<impact type="normal">
<p>
A remote attacker could be able to execute arbitrary code or cause
Denial of Service by making use of an overly long "Location" header in
an HTTP redirect message from a malicious server or a long URL in
malicious RDF feeds.

</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>

</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=media-libs/musicbrainz-2.1.4&quot;</code>
