to the terminal can lead to code execution.

Background
==========

rxvt-unicode is a clone of the well known terminal emulator rxvt.

Affected packages
=================

Package Vulnerable Unaffected
---------------------- ------------ ------------

Description
===========

A vulnerability has been discovered in rxvt-unicode. Please review the
CVE identifiers referenced below for details.

Impact
======

control the data written to the user's terminal and certain options are
set.

resources are set such as 'transparent' (see the full list at the top of
src/perl/background[1]). So it is possible to be using this extension
without realising it.

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=x11-terms/rxvt-unicode-9.30"
