+ libexif is a library for parsing, editing and saving Exif metadata from + images. Exif, the Exchangeable image file format, specifies the + addition of metadata tags to JPEG, TIFF and RIFF files. +

+
+ +

+ Meder Kydyraliev (Google Security) discovered an integer overflow + vulnerability in the exif_data_load_data_thumbnail() function leading + to a memory corruption (CVE-2007-6352) and an infinite recursion in the + exif_loader_write() function (CVE-2007-6351). +

+
+ +

+ An attacker could entice the user of an application making use of + libexif to load an image file with specially crafted Exif tags, + possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the + privileges of the user running the application or a Denial of Service. +

+
+ +

+ There is no known workaround at this time. +

+
+ +

+ All libexif users should upgrade to the latest version: +

+ + # emerge --sync + # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/libexif-0.6.16-r1" +
