A carefully-crafted XPM file could crash X.org, potentially allowing
the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running
the application.

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

<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose x11-base/xorg-x11</code>
</resolution>
