+  <description>
+    <p>
+    A stack-based buffer overflow has been reported in the
+    audit_log_user_command() function in the file lib/audit_logging.c when
+    processing overly long arguments.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A local attacker could execute a specially crafted command on the host
+    running Linux Audit, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary
+    code with the privileges of the user running Linux Audit.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Linux Audit users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=sys-process/audit-1.7.3"</code>
