+ Graphviz is an open source graph visualization software. +

+
+ +

+ Roee Hay reported a stack-based buffer overflow in the push_subg() + function in parser.y when processing a DOT file with a large number of + Agraph_t elements. +

+
+ +

+ A remote attacker could entice a user or automated system to open a + specially crafted DOT file in an application using Graphviz, possibly + leading to the execution of arbitrary code. +

+
+ +

+ There is no known workaround at this time. +

+
+ +

+ All Graphviz users should upgrade to the latest version: +

+ + # emerge --sync + # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-gfx/graphviz-2.20.3" +
