<description>
|
|
<p>Integer overflow errors in the "getPNG()" function in png.c and the
|
|
"jpeg_load()" function in jpeg.c could cause a heap-based buffer
|
|
overflow.

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted PNG or
|
|
JPEG file, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the
|
|
privileges of the process, or a Denial of Service condition.

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

</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>Gentoo discontinued support for SWFTools. We recommend that users
|
|
unmerge swftools:
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --unmerge "media-gfx/swftools"
|
|
</code>
|
|
|
|
<p>NOTE: Users could upgrade to ">=media-gfx/swftools-0.9.1", however
|
|
these packages are not currently stable.
