census reported a directory traversal vulnerability in src/torrent_info.cpp that can be triggered via .torrent files.

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-libs/rb_libtorrent-0.13-r1"
All Deluge users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-p2p/deluge-1.1.9"
