|
|
Reinhard Max discovered a boundary error in Tk when processing an
|
|
interlaced GIF with two frames where the second is smaller than the
|
|
first one.

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted GIF
|
|
image with a Tk-based software, possibly resulting in the execution of
|
|
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application.
|
|
</p>

|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

<code>

# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-lang/tk-8.4.15-r1"</code>
