<impact type="normal">
|
||
|
<p>A remote attacker, pretending to be the E17 window manager, could
|
||
|
possibly trigger an out-of-boundary heap write in feh while receiving an
|
||
|
IPC message. This could result in execution of arbitrary code with the
|
||
|
privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition.

<workaround>

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

</workaround>

<resolution>
|

<p>All feh users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
