    invoked using invalid buffers, which can lead to a double free.

  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    Remote attackers could entice a user or automated system to open a
    specially crafted ZIP file that might lead to the execution of
    arbitrary code or a Denial of Service.

  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All UnZip users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=app-arch/unzip-5.52-r2"</code>
