Title: DSA-1533 exiftags -- insufficient input sanitising
Description: Christian Schmid and Meder Kydyraliev (Google Security) discovered a number of vulnerabilities in exiftags, a utility for extracting EXIF metadata from JPEG images. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identified the following three problems: Inadequate EXIF property validation could lead to invalid memory accesses if executed on a maliciously crafted image, potentially including heap corruption and the execution of arbitrary code. Flawed data validation could lead to integer overflows, causing other invalid memory accesses, also with the potential for memory corruption or arbitrary code execution. Cyclical EXIF image file directory (IFD) references could cause a denial of service (infinite loop).
