The GLib is a library of C routines that is used by a multitude of
programs.

<description>
<p>
Diego E. Petteno` reported multiple integer overflows in glib/gbase64.c
when converting a long string from or to a base64 representation.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>
A remote attacker could entice a user or automated system to perform a
base64 conversion via an application using GLib, possibly resulting in
the execution of arbitrary code.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
All GLib 2.18 users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-libs/glib-2.18.4-r1"</code>
<p>
All GLib 2.16 users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-libs/glib-2.16.6-r1"</code>
