Update
======

The cross-site scripting vulnerability that Gallery 1.4.4-pl5 was
intended to fix, did not actually resolve the issue.  The Gallery
Development Team have released version 1.4.4-pl6 to properly solve
this problem.

The updated sections appear below.
=================

    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     Package           /  Vulnerable  /                     Unaffected
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
  1  www-apps/gallery     < 1.4.4_p6                       >= 1.4.4_p6

Resolution
==========

All Gallery users should upgrade to the latest version:

    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=www-apps/gallery-1.4.4_p6"

Note: Users with the vhosts USE flag set should manually use
webapp-config to finalize the update.
