From ${URL}: Several vulnerabilities were discovered in WebKitGTK+. ## 13 different CVEs all with: "Impact: Processing maliciously crafted web content may lead to arbitrary code execution. Description: Multiple memory corruption issues were addressed with improved memory handling." Ten are fixed in 2.18.1 (2.18.2 is current in portage as I write this); three fixed in 2.18.3 (just released).
