A mechanism to QUERY which installed packages are affected by known

You can use glsa-check for this, which comes with portage:

Very useful for human-readable, not so much for integration into other
systems :).
We currently parse a lot of that using things like awk etc ... but
thinking about it now, one could probably dig into the xml stuff
directly, so use glsa-check -l to get the list, then find the xml files
and query those using tools more suited for that.
Thank you :).
Kind Regards,
