quote from advisory:

"A remotely exploitable buffer overflow exists within the parsing of the
message/external-body type attribute name/value pairs. Failure to check
that the length of the longest attribute is less than the space
available allows a maliciously formed e-mail message to overwrite
control structures."

"A remotely exploitable integer overflow exists in the parsing of e-mail
headers, allowing for arbitrary code execution upon the opening of a
malicious e-mail."

SOLUTION

It is recommended that all Gentoo Linux users who are running
net-mail/pine upgrade to either one of these versions:

pine-4.58    OR
pine-4.58-r1 if accepting "~" keywords.

emerge sync
emerge pine
emerge clean
