<title>GTK+ 2, GdkPixbuf: Multiple XPM decoding vulnerabilities</title>
<synopsis>
The GdkPixbuf library, that is also included in GTK+ 2, contains
vulnerabilities that could lead to a Denial of Service or the execution of
arbitrary code.

<p>
GTK+ (the GIMP Toolkit) is a toolkit for creating graphical user
interfaces. The GdkPixbuf library provides facilities for image
handling. It is available as a standalone library and also packaged
with GTK+ 2.

<p>
iDEFENSE reported a possible heap overflow in the XPM loader
(CVE-2005-3186). Upon further inspection, Ludwig Nussel discovered two
additional issues in the XPM processing functions : an integer overflow
(CVE-2005-2976) that affects only gdk-pixbuf, and an infinite loop
(CVE-2005-2975).
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>
Using a specially crafted XPM image an attacker could cause an
affected application to enter an infinite loop or trigger the
overflows, potentially allowing the execution of arbitrary code.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
All GTK+ 2 users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose x11-libs/gtk+</code>
<p>
All GdkPixbuf users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=media-libs/gdk-pixbuf-0.22.0-r5&quot;</code>
