+ <background>
+ <p>libwww is a collection of Perl modules providing a consistent interface
+ to the World-Wide Web.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in libwww-perl. Please
+ review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A remote attacker could entice a user to download a specially-crafted
+ file with an application linked against libwww-perl, which could result
+ in overwritten files or arbitrary code execution by writing to a dotfile
+ in the user’s home directory (such as .bashrc). Additionally, a remote
+ attacker could perform a Man-in-the-Middle attack.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All libwww-perl users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-perl/libwww-perl-6.30.0"
+ </code>
+
+ <p>NOTE: This is a legacy GLSA. Updates for all affected architectures are
+ available since December 18, 2011. It is likely that your system is
+ already no longer affected by this issue.
