+    LibAST is a utility library that was originally intended to accompany
+    Eterm, but may be used by various other applications.

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Michael Jennings discovered an exploitable buffer overflow in the
+    configuration engine of LibAST.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    The vulnerability can be exploited to gain escalated privileges if the
+    application using LibAST is setuid/setgid and passes a specifically
+    crafted filename to LibAST's configuration engine.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    Identify all applications linking against LibAST and verify they are
+    not setuid/setgid.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All users should upgrade to the latest version and run revdep-rebuild:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=x11-libs/libast-0.7"
+    # revdep-rebuild</code>
