Errata
======

The fixed zgv ebuild proposed in the initial version of this Security
Advisory did not address all the vulnerabilities of the zgv package.

The corrected sections appear below.

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

The corrected list of affected packages is as follows:

    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     Package         /  Vulnerable  /                       Unaffected
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
  1  media-gfx/xzgv      < 0.8-r2                            >= 0.8-r2
  2  media-gfx/zgv         < 5.9                                >= 5.9
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     2 affected packages on all of their supported architectures.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------

Resolution
==========

All zgv users should also upgrade to the latest version:

    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-gfx/zgv-5.9"
