+    <p>
+    Jean-David Maillefer discovered a format string vulnerability in
+    time.cc where MySQL fails to properly handle specially formatted user
+    input to the date_format function.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    By specifying a format string as the first parameter to the date_format
+    function, an authenticated attacker could cause MySQL to crash,
+    resulting in a Denial of Service.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All MySQL users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --verbose --oneshot &quot;&gt;=dev-db/mysql-4.1.21&quot;</code>
