+ Tavis Ormandy of the Gentoo Linux Security Audit Team identified a flaw
+ in the handling of image filenames by xv.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ Successful exploitation would require a victim to process a specially
+ crafted image with a malformed filename, potentially resulting in the
+ execution of arbitrary code.

+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All xv users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=media-gfx/xv-3.10a-r10"</code>
