1.5.4-r1 was committed yesterday for this CVE (told xarthisius to do that on Freenode) so we have been good since yesterday

Thanks for 1.5.5 in any case :-)

CVE-2011-3328 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2011-3328):
  The png_handle_cHRM function in pngrutil.c in libpng 1.5.4, when
  color-correction support is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a
  denial of service (divide-by-zero error and application crash) via a
  malformed PNG image containing a cHRM chunk associated with a certain zero
  value.
