+  <synopsis>
+    PHP contains a function that, when used, could allow a remote attacker to
+    execute arbitrary code.

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    PHP is a widely-used general-purpose scripting language that is
+    especially suited for Web development and can be embedded into HTML.
+    </p>
+  </background>
+  <description>
+    <p>
+    The sscanf() PHP function contains an array boundary error that can be
+    exploited to dereference a null pointer. This can possibly allow the
+    bypass of the safe mode protection by executing arbitrary code.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker might be able to exploit this vulnerability in PHP
+    applications making use of the sscanf() function, potentially resulting
+    in the execution of arbitrary code or the execution of scripted
+    contents in the context of the affected site.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All PHP 4.x users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=dev-lang/php-4.4.3-r1&quot;</code>
+    <p>
+    All PHP 5.x users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=dev-lang/php-5.1.4-r6&quot;</code>
