Buffer overflow in libpng

Package(s):libpng CVE #(s):CAN-2002-0728 CAN-2002-0660
Created:August 20, 2002 Updated:August 20, 2002
Description: Versions of libpng prior to 1.0.14 contain a buffer overflow in the progressive reader when the PNG datastream contains more IDAT data than indicated by the IHDR chunk. Such deliberately malformed datastreams would crash applications that are linked to libpng and that use the progressive reading feature. (From the Red Hat alert).
