+  <title>flex: Potential insecure code generation</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    flex might generate code with a buffer overflow, making applications using
+    such scanners vulnerable to the execution of arbitrary code.

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    flex is a programming tool used to generate scanners (programs
+    which recognize lexical patterns in text).
+    </p>
+  </background>
+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Chris Moore discovered a buffer overflow in a special class of
+    lexicographical scanners generated by flex. Only scanners generated by
+    grammars which use either REJECT, or rules with a "variable trailing
+    context" might be at risk.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    An attacker could feed malicious input to an application making
+    use of an affected scanner and trigger the buffer overflow, potentially
+    resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    Avoid using vulnerable grammar in your flex scanners.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All flex users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=sys-devel/flex-2.5.33-r1"</code>
+  </resolution>
