+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Gentoo's Vim maintainer, Ciaran McCreesh, found several
+    vulnerabilities related to the use of options in Vim modelines. Options
+    like 'termcap', 'printdevice', 'titleold', 'filetype', 'syntax',
+    'backupext', 'keymap', 'patchmode' or 'langmenu' could be abused.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A local attacker could write a malicious file in a world readable
+    location which, when opened in a modeline-enabled Vim, could trigger
+    arbitrary commands with the rights of the user opening the file,
+    resulting in privilege escalation. Please note that modelines are
+    disabled by default in the /etc/vimrc file provided in Gentoo.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Vim users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=app-editors/vim-6.3-r2"</code>
+    <p>
+    All gVim users should also upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=app-editors/gvim-6.3-r2"</code>
