+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted .flac
+      file using an application linked against FLAC, 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 FLAC users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+    
+    <code>
+      # emerge --sync
+      # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=media-libs/flac-1.3.1-r1"
+    </code>
+    
+    <p>Packages which depend on this library may need to be recompiled. Tools
+      such as revdep-rebuild may assist in identifying these packages.
