VULHUB ™

Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in gdk-pixbuf. The first vulnerability in the library presents itself when the library tries to decode BMP images. In certain circumstances, the library may enter into an infinite loop and consume CPU resources, thus halting further execution of applications using the library. The second and third vulnerabilities occur when the library tries to decode XPM images. Specially crafted image files could either crash applications using the affected library, or allow for the execution of attacker-supplied code. The fourth and last vulnerability occurs when the library tries to decode ICO images. Specially crafted ICO files could cause applications to crash. These vulnerabilities allow attackers to crash applications or to execute arbitrary code in the context of applications that use the affected library.
