  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    Under certain conditions, a local, user-assisted attacker could
    possibly overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on an
    attacker-owned file that is being edited by the victim, or change the
    ownership of arbitrary files.
    </p>

  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All nano users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-editors/nano-2.2.4&quot;</code>
