Background ========== libexif is a library for parsing, editing and saving Exif data. Affected packages ================= ------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 media-libs/libexif < 0.6.15 >= 0.6.15 Description =========== Victor Stinner reported an integer overflow in the exif_data_load_data_entry() function from file exif-data.c while handling Exif data. Impact ====== An attacker could entice a user to process a file with specially crafted Exif extensions with an application making use of libexif, which will trigger the integer overflow and potentially execute arbitrary code or crash the application. Workaround ========== There is no known workaround at this time. Resolution ========== All libexif users should upgrade to the latest version. Please note that users upgrading from "<=media-libs/libexif-0.6.13" should also run revdep-rebuild after their upgrade. # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/libexif-0.6.15" # revdep-rebuild --library=/usr/lib/libexif.so References ========== [ 1 ] CVE-2007-2645 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-2645 Availability ============ This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-200706-01.xml Concerns? ========= Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users machines is of utmost importance to us.
