+    <p>
+    Tavis Ormandy of the Google Security Team has reported multiple
+    vulnerabilities in gzip. A stack buffer modification vulnerability was
+    discovered in the LZH decompression code, where a pathological data
+    stream may result in the modification of stack data such as frame
+    pointer, return address or saved registers. A static buffer underflow
+    was discovered in the pack decompression support, allowing a specially
+    crafted pack archive to underflow a .bss buffer. A static buffer
+    overflow was uncovered in the LZH decompression code, allowing a data
+    stream consisting of pathological huffman codes to overflow a .bss
+    buffer. Multiple infinite loops were also uncovered in the LZH
+    decompression code.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker may create a specially crafted gzip archive, which
+    when decompressed by a user or automated system exectues arbitrary code
+    with the privileges of the user id invoking gzip. The infinite loops
+    may be abused by an attacker to disrupt any automated systems invoking
+    gzip to handle data decompression.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All gzip users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-arch/gzip-1.3.5-r9&quot;</code>
+  </resolution>
