Impact

Please review the referenced CVE identifiers for details.

Workaround

Users can pass only trusted input to AtomicParsley.

Resolution

Previously, the "wez" AtomicParsley fork was packaged in Gentoo as media-video/atomicparsley-wez. This fork is now packaged as media-video/atomicparsley, so users of the fork's package should now depclean it:

          # emerge --ask --depclean "media-video/atomicparsley-wez"

All AtomicParsley users should upgrade to the latest version, which is a packaging of the "wez" AtomicParsley fork:


          # emerge --sync
          # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-video/atomicparsley-0.9.6_p20210715_p151551"
