+    <p>
+    Sven Tantau discovered a heap overflow in the code handling the
+    strf chunk of PCM audio streams.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    An attacker could craft a malicious video or audio file which,
+    when opened using MPlayer, would end up executing arbitrary code on the
+    victim's computer with the permissions of the user running MPlayer.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    You can mitigate the issue by adding "ac=-pcm," to your MPlayer
+    configuration file (note that this will prevent you from playing
+    uncompressed audio).
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All MPlayer users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=media-video/mplayer-1.0_pre7-r1&quot;</code>
