Fedora alert FEDORA-2011-8667 (gdk-pixbuf2)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2011-8667 2011-06-24 17:35:52 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : gdk-pixbuf2 Product : Fedora 14 Version : 2.22.0 Release : 2.fc14 URL : http://www.gt.org Summary : An image loading library Description : 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. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: It was found that gdk-pixbuf GIF image loader gdk_pixbuf__gif_image_load() routine did not properly handle certain return values from their subroutines. A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted GIF image, which once opened in an application, linked against gdk-pixbuf would lead to gdk-pixbuf to return partially initialized pixbuf structure, possibly having huge width and height, leading to that particular application termination due excessive memory use. The CVE identifier of CVE-2011-2485 has been assigned to this issue. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Fri Jun 24 2011 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com> 2.22.0-2 - Don't return a partially initialized pixbuf structure from the GIF loader (CVE-2011-2485) * Wed Sep 29 2010 jkeating - 2.22.0-1.1 - Rebuilt for gcc bug 634757 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program. Use su -c 'yum update gdk-pixbuf2' at the command line. For more information, refer to "Managing Software with yum", available at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/.
