      <unaffected range="ge">0.2.0-r2</unaffected>

  <background>
    <p>GEGL is a graph-based image processing framework.</p>

  <description>
    <p>Multiple integer overflows in GEGL may cause a heap-based buffer
      overflow.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted PPM
      image using an application linked against GEGL, possibly resulting in
      execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the process or a
      Denial of Service condition.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>All gegl users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
    
    <code>
      # emerge --sync
      # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=media-libs/gegl-0.2.0-r2"
    </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.
