<title>giflib: Multiple vulnerabilities</title>
|
|

|
|
code execution.

<description>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Chris Evans and Daniel Eisenbud independently discovered two
|
|
out-of-bounds memory write operations and a NULL pointer dereference in
|
|
giflib.
|
|
</p>
|

|
|
<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
An attacker could craft a malicious GIF image and entice users to
|
|
load it using an application making use of the giflib library,
|
|
resulting in an application crash or potentially the execution of
|
|
arbitrary code.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All giflib users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/giflib-4.1.4"</code>
|
|
