+ <background>
+ <p>GNUstep Base library is a free software package implementing the API of
+ the OpenStep Foundation Kit (tm), including later additions.
+ </p>

+ <description>
+ <p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in GNUstep Base library.
+ Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>A context-dependent attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code. A
+ local attacker could possibly read arbitrary files.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All GNUstep Base library users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
+ "&gt;=gnustep-base/gnustep-base-1.20.1"
+ </code>
+
+ <p>Packages which depend on this library may need to be recompiled. Tools
+ such as revdep-rebuild may assist in identifying some of these packages.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>NOTE: This is a legacy GLSA. Updates for all affected architectures are
+ available since August 13, 2010. It is likely that your system is already
+ no longer affected by this issue.
