programs) is a set of text-mode partitioning tools for Linux, FreeBSD,

<impact type="normal">
<p>A local attacker could entice a user to insert a malicious formatted
block device (USB stick or SD card for example), that, when processed
with sgdisk, possibly resulting in local escalation of privileges or a
Denial of Service condition.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>All GPT fdisk users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=sys-apps/gptfdisk-1.0.6"
</code>
