  <affected>
    <package name="dev-libs/libyaml" auto="yes" arch="*">
      <unaffected range="ge">0.1.5</unaffected>
      <vulnerable range="lt">0.1.5</vulnerable>

  <background>
    <p>LibYAML is a YAML 1.1 parser and emitter written in C.</p>
  </background>
  <description>
    <p>A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way libyaml parsed
      YAML tags.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted YAML document which
      when parsed by LibYAML, would cause the application to crash or,
      potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges the user who is
      running the application.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>All LibYAML users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
    
    <code>
      # emerge --sync
      # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-libs/libyaml-0.1.5"
    </code>
