Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2015-01-24 20:11:45 UTC 
From ${URL} :

It was reported that the fix for CVE-2015-1196 was incomplete. It was
reported to the Debian BTS as #775901[1] and as well mentioned in Red
Hat's Bugzilla at [2].

Does this need a separate CVE?

@maintainer(s): after the bump, in case we need to stabilize the package, please let us know if it is ready for the stabilization or not.

This is fixed in =sys-devel/patch-2.7.3. Stabilization of that version is handled in bug #536614.
