+    KDE is a feature-rich graphical desktop environment for Linux and
+    Unix-like Operating Systems. KDM is the KDE Display Manager and is part
+    of the kdebase package.

+    Ludwig Nussel discovered that KDM could be tricked into allowing users
+    to read files that would otherwise not be readable.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A local attacker could exploit this issue to obtain potentially
+    sensitive information that is usually not accessable to the local user
+    such as shadow files or other user's files. The default Gentoo user
+    running KDM is root and, as a result, the local attacker can read any
+    file.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All kdebase users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose kde-base/kdebase</code>
+    <p>
+    All KDE split ebuild users should upgrade to the latest KDM version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose kde-base/kdm</code>
