+        <p>A denial of service vulnerability has been discovered in Nokogiri. Please review the CVE identifier referenced below for details.</p>
+    </description>
+    <impact type="normal">
+        <p>Nokogiri fails to check the return value from `xmlTextReaderExpand` in the method `Nokogiri::XML::Reader#attribute_hash`. This can lead to a null pointer exception when invalid markup is being parsed. For applications using `XML::Reader` to parse untrusted inputs, this may potentially be a vector for a denial of service attack.</p>
+    </impact>
+    <workaround>
+        <p>Users may be able to search their code for calls to either `XML::Reader#attributes` or `XML::Reader#attribute_hash` to determine if they are affected.</p>
+    </workaround>
+    <resolution>
+        <p>All Nokogiri users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+        
+        <code>
+          # emerge --sync
+          # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-ruby/nokogiri-1.13.10"
+        </code>
