Description GLSAMaker/CVETool Bot gentoo-dev 2011-10-08 00:21:50 UTC 
CVE-2009-5063 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-5063):
  Memory leak in pngwutil.c in libpng before 1.2.39beta5 allows
  context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory leak or
  segmentation fault) via a JPEG image containing an iCCP chunk with a
  negative embedded profile length.  NOTE: this is due to an incomplete fix
  for CVE-2006-7244.


CVE cleanup. No action required.
