A vulnerability in Freeciv may allow a remote attacker to execute
arbitrary code.

Background
==========

Freeciv is an open-source empire building strategy game.

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

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

  1  games-strategy/freeciv       < 2.2.1                    >= 2.2.1

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

The Lua component of Freeciv does not restrict which modules may be
loaded by scenario scripts.

Impact
======

A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted
scenario file, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code or
reading of arbitrary files with the privileges of the process.

Workaround
==========

  # emerge --sync
  # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
 ">=games-strategy/freeciv-2.2.1"
