+        <p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in KDE Plasma Workspaces. Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.</p>
+    </description>
+    <impact type="high">
+        <p>KSmserver, KDE&#39;s XSMP manager, incorrectly allows connections via ICE

+based purely on the host, allowing all local connections. This allows

+another user on the same machine to gain access to the session

+manager.

+

+A well crafted client could use the session restore feature to execute

+arbitrary code as the user on the next boot.</p>
+    </impact>
+    <workaround>
+        <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+    </workaround>
+    <resolution>
+        <p>All KDE Plasma Workspaces users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+        
+        <code>
+          # emerge --sync
+          # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=kde-plasma/plasma-workspace-5.27.11.1"
