Detail

Marcus Meissner discovered a heap overflow error in imlib, an imaging library for X and X11, that could be abused by an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the victims machine. The updated packages we have provided in DSA 548-1 did not seem to be sufficient, which should be fixed by this update.

For the oldstable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 1.9.14-2woody3.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 1.9.14-16.2.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 1.9.14-17 of imlib and in version 1.9.14-16.2 of imlib+png2.

We recommend that you upgrade your imlib1 packages.

Open Source Vulnerability Database (OSVDB)

Id Description
9781 imlib2 BMP Image Decoding Overflow

A remote overflow exists in imlib2. imlib2 fails to decode runlength-encoded BMP images resulting in a buffer overflow. With a specially crafted BMP file, an attacker can cause execution of arbitrary code resulting in a loss of integrity and/or availability.
9435 imlib BMP Decoding Overflow

A remote overflow exists in imlib. imlib fails to perform proper bounds checking on BMP files resulting in a non-descript overflow. With a specially crafted request, an attacker can potentially cause imlib to crash or allow arbitrary code execution resulting in a loss of confidentiality and/or integrity.
