Description Alex Legler (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2010-04-22 17:32:15 UTC
CVE-2010-0991 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-0991):
  Multiple heap-based buffer overflows in imlib2 1.4.3 allow
  context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted
  (1) ARGB, (2) XPM, or (3) BMP file, related to the
  IMAGE_DIMENSIONS_OK macro in lib/image.h.

According to RedHat [1], only 1.4.3 is affected.
There is not yet an upstream release, only a fix in SVN. I think we can wait until that new release is out.

imlib2-1.4.4 is now in the tree

It would be nice to punt 1.4.3, this can be closed afterwards, as a vulnerable version was never stable.
