+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Laurent Butti, Jerome Raznieski and Julien Tinnes reported a buffer
+    overflow in the encode_ie() and the giwscan_cb() functions from
+    ieee80211_wireless.c.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker could send specially crafted wireless WPA packets
+    containing malicious RSN Information Headers (IE) that could
+    potentially lead to the remote execution of arbitrary code as the root
+    user.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All MadWifi users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=net-wireless/madwifi-ng-0.9.2.1&quot;</code>
