XLI and Xloadimage are X11 image manipulation utilities.

|
|
When XLI or Xloadimage process an image, they create a new image
|
|
object to contain the new image, copying the title from the old image
|
|
to the newly created image. Ariel Berkman reported that the 'zoom',
|
|
'reduce', and 'rotate' functions use a fixed length buffer to contain
|
|
the new title, which could be overwritten by the NIFF or XPM image
|
|
processors.

|
|
<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A malicious user could craft a malicious XPM or NIFF file and
|
|
entice a user to view it using XLI, or manipulate it using Xloadimage,
|
|
potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the
|
|
permissions of the user running XLI or Xloadimage.

<workaround>

|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

All XLI users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-gfx/xli-1.17.0-r2"</code>

All Xloadimage users should upgrade to the latest version:

<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|

# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-gfx/xloadimage-4.1-r4"</code>
