Synopsis
=======
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in Pango, the worst of which
allow execution of arbitrary code or Denial of Service.

Background
=========
Pango is an internationalized text layout and rendering library

Affected packages
================
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     Package              /     Vulnerable     /            Unaffected
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
  1  x11-libs/pango             < 1.28.3-r1              >= 1.28.3-r1 

Description
==========
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Pango. Please review
the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.

Impact
=====
A context-dependent attacker could entice a user to load specially
crafted text using an application linked against Pango, possibly
resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the
process or a Denial of Service condition.

Workaround
=========
There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
=========
All Pango users should upgrade to the latest version:

  # emerge --sync
  # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=x11-libs/pango-1.28.3-r1"

Packages which depend on this library may need to be recompiled. Tools
such as revdep-rebuild may assist in identifying some of these
packages.

NOTE: This is a legacy GLSA. Updates for all affected architectures are
available since March 18, 2011. It is likely that your system is
already no longer affected by this issue.
