+    <p>The GNU Binutils are a collection of tools to create, modify and analyse
+      binary files. Many of the files use BFD, the Binary File Descriptor
+      library, to do low-level manipulation.
+    </p>

+  <description>
+    <p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Binutils. Please review
+      the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted file,
+      possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of
+      the process, cause a Denial of Service condition, or overwrite arbitrary
+      files.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>All Binutils users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>

+      # emerge --sync
