+  <title>VLC: Multiple vulnerabilities</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    Multiple vulnerabilities in VLC may allow for the execution of arbitrary
+    code.

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    VLC is a cross-platform media player and streaming server.
+    </p>

+  <description>
+    <ul><li>Remi Denis-Courmont reported that VLC loads plugins from the
+    current working directory in an unsafe manner (CVE-2008-2147).</li>
+    <li>Alin Rad Pop (Secunia Research) reported an integer overflow error
+    in the Open() function in the file modules/demux/wav.c
+    (CVE-2008-2430).</li>
+    </ul>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted .wav
+    file, and a local attacker could entice a user to run VLC from a
+    directory containing specially crafted modules, possibly resulting in
+    the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running
+    the application.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All VLC users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=media-video/vlc-0.8.6i&quot;</code>
