Description Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2021-05-26 16:43:31 UTC

"libgrss through 0.7.0 fails to perform TLS certificate verification when downloading feeds, allowing remote attackers to manipulate the contents of feeds without detection. This occurs because of the default behavior of SoupSessionSync."
