47 <impact type="high">
48 <p>
49 A remote attacker could send a specially crafted request to the
50 vulnerable server, possibly resulting in the remote execution of
51 arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the PeerCast
52 server, usually "nobody".

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

65 # emerge --sync
66 # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=media-sound/peercast-0.1218&quot;</code>
