<impact type="high">
<p>
Under specific circumstances an attacker could execute arbitary
code with the permissions of the user running mit-krb5, which could be
the root user.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
All mit-krb5 users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-crypt/mit-krb5-1.3.6"</code>
</resolution>
