+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Cairo is a 2D vector graphics library with cross-device output support.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Multiple integer overflows were reported, one of which Peter Valchev
+ (Google Security) found to be leading to a heap-based buffer overflow
+ in the cairo_image_surface_create_from_png() function that processes
+ PNG images.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could entice a user to view or process a specially
+ crafted PNG image file in an application linked against Cairo, possibly
+ leading to the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the
+ user running the application.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Cairo users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=x11-libs/cairo-1.4.12"</code>
