Description Stefan Behte (RETIRED) gentoo-dev Security 2009-12-18 01:11:51 UTC 
CVE-2009-3994 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2009-3994):
  Stack-based buffer overflow in the GetUID function in
  src-IL/src/il_dicom.c in DevIL 1.7.8 allows remote attackers to cause
  a denial of service (application crash) or execute arbitrary code via
  a crafted DICOM file.

Patch in $URL.
Comment 2 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-12-18 07:07:22 UTC 
That's not the version in portage.
Comment 3 Stefan Behte (RETIRED) gentoo-dev Security 2009-12-18 14:57:40 UTC 
Description, versioning and product link fitted, but now further research showed that the tree is similar, but il_dicom.c is missing. I'm not sure why yet.
Comment 4 Alex Legler (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2009-12-20 08:45:06 UTC 
Our current version in the tree is not affected, only 1.7.8 is. Games, please remember to update to an unaffected version when bumping.
