Multiple integer overflow vulnerabilities in Libgdiplus may allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.
| Package | Arch | Vulnerable | Unaffected |
|---|---|---|---|
| dev-dotnet/libgdiplus | * | < 2.6.7-r1 | >= 2.6.7-r1 |
Libgdiplus is the Mono library that provide a GDI+ comptible API on non-Windows operating systems.
An integer overflow flaw has been discovered in Libgdiplus.
A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially-crafted TIFF/JPEG/BMP file, potentially resulting in arbitrary code execution.
There is no known workaround at this time.
All Libgdiplus users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-dotnet/libgdiplus-2.6.7-r1"
Packages which depend on this library may need to be recompiled. Tools such as revdep-rebuild may assist in identifying some of these packages.
NOTE: This is a legacy GLSA. Updates for all affected architectures are available since September 12, 2010. It is likely that your system is already no longer affected by this issue.
