|
Stefan Cornelius (Secunia Research) reported two boundary errors in
|
|
Imlib2:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>One of them within the load() function in the
|
|
file src/modules/loaders/loader_pnm.c when processing the header of a
|
|
PNM image file, possibly leading to a stack-based buffer overflow.</li>
|
|
<li>The second one within the load() function in the file
|
|
src/modules/loader_xpm.c when processing an XPM image file, possibly
|
|
leading to a stack-based buffer overflow.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</description>
|
|
<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted PNM
|
|
or XPM image, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code
|
|
with the rights of the user running the application using Imlib 2.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All Imlib 2 users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/imlib2-1.4.0-r1"</code>
|
|
</resolution>
