+ <p>Wee Enhanced Environment for Chat (WeeChat) is a light and extensible
+ console IRC client.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>Two vulnerabilities have been discovered in WeeChat:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>The hook_process() function does not properly handle shell expansions
+ (CVE-2012-5534).
+ </li>
+ <li>WeeChat does not properly decode colors which could cause a
+ heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2012-5854).
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted script
+ or send messages with specially crafted colors, possibly resulting in
+ execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the process, or a
+ Denial of Service condition.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All WeeChat users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-irc/weechat-0.3.9.2"
+ </code>
