+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    An attacker may be able to create a specially crafted ELF file which,
+    when processed with file, may allow the execution of arbitrary code.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All file users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=sys-apps/file-4.12&quot;</code>
