+ <description>
+ <p>Two vulnerabilities have been reported in the Locale-Maketext module for
+ Perl, which can be exploited by malicious users to compromise an
+ application using the module.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>The vulnerabilities are caused due to the “_compile()” function not
+ properly sanitising input, which can be exploited to inject and execute
+ arbitrary Perl code.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A remote attacker could possibly execute arbitrary code with the
+ privileges of the process, or cause a Denial of Service condition.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All users of the Locale-Maketext module should upgrade to the latest
+ version:
+ </p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
+ "&gt;=perl-core/Locale-Maketext-1.230.0"
+ </code>
