ELSA-2015-1694 -- Oracle gdk-pixbuf2

ID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:26784Date: (C)2015-09-28   (M)2024-01-29
Class: PATCHFamily: unix




gdk-pixbuf is an image loading library that can be extended by loadable modules for new image formats. It is used by toolkits such as GTK+ or clutter. An integer overflow, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was found in the way gdk-pixbuf, an image loading library for GNOME, scaled certain bitmap format images. An attacker could use a specially crafted BMP image file that, when processed by an application compiled against the gdk-pixbuf library, would cause that application to crash or execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running the application. Red Hat would like to thank the Mozilla project for reporting this issue. Upstream acknowledges Gustavo Grieco as the original reporter. All gdk-pixbuf2 users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue.
