Severity: Normal Title: libexif: Buffer overflow Date: June 26, 2007 Bugs: #181922 ID: 200706-09

Synopsis ========
libexif does not properly handle image EXIF information, possibly allowing for the execution of arbitrary code.
Background ==========
libexif is a library for parsing, editing and saving EXIF metadata from images.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 media-libs/libexif < 0.6.16 >= 0.6.16
Description ===========
iDefense Labs have discovered that the exif_data_load_data_entry() function in libexif/exif-data.c improperly handles integer data while working with an image with many EXIF components, allowing an integer overflow possibly leading to a heap-based buffer overflow.
Impact ======
An attacker could entice a user of an application making use of a vulnerable version of libexif to load a specially crafted image file, possibly resulting in a crash of the application or the execution of arbitrary code with the rights of the user running the application.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
All libexif users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/libexif-0.6.16"
