Description:   Opened: 2006-11-30 09:18 0000 
"infamous41md" discovered a heap buffer overflow vulnerability in libgsf, a
GNOME library for reading and writing structured file formats, which could lead
to the execution of arbitrary code.

libgsf 1.14.2 was already in portage and since there are no open issues
concerning it, I see no problem putting it up for stabilisation.

arches, please test and stable libgsf-1.14.2. thanks!
