+	  <p>Andrew Bartlett of Catalyst reported a defect affecting certain
+	     applications using the Libevent evbuffer API. This defect leaves
+	     applications which pass insanely large inputs to evbuffers open
+	     to a possible heap overflow or infinite loop. In order to exploit
+	     this flaw, an attacker needs to be able to find a way to provoke
+	     the program into trying to make a buffer chunk larger than what
+	     will fit into a single size_t or off_t.
