Tavis Ormandy of the Gentoo Linux Security Audit Team identified a flaw
in the handling of image filenames by xv.

<impact type="normal">
<p>
Successful exploitation would require a victim to process a specially
crafted image with a malformed filename, potentially resulting in the
execution of arbitrary code.

<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>

</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-gfx/xv-3.10a-r10"</code>
