+    KVIrc is a free portable IRC client based on Qt.

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Stefan Cornelius from Secunia Research discovered that the
+    "parseIrcUrl()" function in file src/kvirc/kernel/kvi_ircurl.cpp does
+    not properly sanitise parts of the URI when building the command for
+    KVIrc's internal script system.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted
+    irc:// URI, possibly leading to the remote execution of arbitrary code
+    with the privileges of the user running KVIrc. Successful exploitation
+    requires that KVIrc is registered as the default handler for irc:// or
+    similar URIs.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All KVIrc users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=net-irc/kvirc-3.2.6_pre20070714&quot;</code>
