<description>

|
<p>
|
|
Tavis Ormandy of the Gentoo Linux Auditing Team discovered that the
|
|
vulnerable JPEG library ebuilds compile JPEG without the --maxmem
|
|
feature which is not recommended.

|
<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
By enticing a user to load a specially crafted JPEG image file an
|
|
attacker could cause a Denial of Service, due to memory exhaustion.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

JPEG users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/jpeg-6b-r7"</code>
