libpng: resource consumption

Package(s):libpng10 CVE #(s):CVE-2010-0205
Created:March 16, 2010 Updated:October 6, 2010
Description: From the Red Hat bugzilla:

It was reported that libpng suffers from an issue where certain highly compressed ancillary chunks (zTxt, iTxt, iCCP) could cause libpng to stall or crash by consuming huge amounts of memory. This vulnerability is reported to affect all versions of libpng prior to 1.4.1, as well as versions of Firefox from 3.0. It is also possible that other gecko-based browsers are vulnerable as well, as well as all versions of pngcrush, ImageMagick, and GraphicsMagick.
