+  <title>KStars: Buffer overflow in fliccd</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    KStars is vulnerable to a buffer overflow that could lead to arbitrary code
+    execution with elevated privileges.

+    <p>
+    KDE is a feature-rich graphical desktop environment for Linux and
+    Unix-like Operating Systems. KStars is a desktop planetarium for KDE.
+    It includes support for the Instrument Neutral Distributed Interface
+    (INDI).

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Erik Sjolund discovered a buffer overflow in fliccd which is part
+    of the INDI support in KStars.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute code with
+    elevated privileges. If fliccd does not run as daemon remote
+    exploitation of this vulnerability is not possible. KDE as shipped by
+    Gentoo does not start the daemon in the default installation.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All KStars users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=kde-base/kdeedu-3.3.2-r1&quot;</code>
