--------------------------------------------------------------------------Package        : imlib
Vulnerability  : buffer overflows, integer overflows
Problem-Type   : local/remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CAN-2004-1025 CAN-2004-1026
BugTraq ID     : 11830
Debian Bug     : 284925

Pavel Kankovsky discovered that several overflows found in the libXpm
library were also present in imlib, an imaging library for X and X11.
An attacker could create a carefully crafted image file in such a way
that it could cause an application linked with imlib to execute
arbitrary code when the file was opened by a victim.  The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following
problems:

CAN-2004-1025

    Multiple heap-based buffer overflows.

CAN-2004-1026

    Multiple integer overflows.

For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in
version 1.9.14-2woody2.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in
version 1.9.14-17.1.

We recommend that you upgrade your imlib packages immediately.
