Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDKSA-2007:036
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________

Package : libwmf
Date : February 6, 2007
Affected: 2006.0, 2007.0, Corporate 3.0, Corporate 4.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

Buffer overflow in the gdImageStringFTEx function in gdft.c in the GD
Graphics Library 2.0.33 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a
denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary
code via a crafted string with a JIS encoded font.

Libwmf uses an embedded copy of the gd source and may also be affected
by this issue.

Packages have been patched to correct this issue.
