<p>
|
|
Joxean Koret has discovered that Inkscape incorrectly allocates
|
|
memory when opening an SVG file, creating the possibility of a buffer
|
|
overflow if the SVG file being opened is specially crafted.

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
An attacker could entice a user into opening a maliciously crafted
|
|
SVG file, allowing for the execution of arbitrary code on a machine
|
|
with the privileges of the user running Inkscape.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

</workaround>

<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All Inkscape users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-gfx/inkscape-0.43"</code>
