+  <description>
+    <p>
+    xine-lib contains a bug where it is possible to overflow the vcd://
+    input source identifier management buffer through carefully crafted
+    playlists.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    An attacker may construct a carefully-crafted playlist file which will
+    cause xine-lib to execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the
+    user. In order to conform with the generic naming standards of most
+    Unix-like systems, playlists can have extensions other than .asx (the
+    standard xine playlist format), and made to look like another file
+    (MP3, AVI, or MPEG for example). If an attacker crafts a playlist with
+    a valid header, they can insert a VCD playlist line that can cause a
+    buffer overflow and possible shellcode execution.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time. All users are encouraged to
+    upgrade to the latest available version of xine-lib.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All xine-lib users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge sync
+    
+    # emerge -pv &quot;&gt;=media-libs/xine-lib-1_rc5-r3&quot;
