Debian 9904 Published by

Two new updates are available for Debian GNU/Linux:

Debian GNU/Linux 7 LTS:
DLA 1055-1: libgd2 security update

Debian GNU/Linux 8 and 9:
DSA 3939-1: botan1.10 security update



DLA 1055-1: libgd2 security update

Package : libgd2
Version : 2.0.36~rc1~dfsg-6.1+deb7u9
CVE ID : CVE-2017-7890


Matviy Kotoniy reported that the gdImageCreateFromGifCtx() function used
to load images from GIF format files in libgd2, a library for
programmatic graphics creation and manipulation, does not zero stack
allocated color map buffers before their use, which may result in
information disclosure if a specially crafted file is processed.


For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
2.0.36~rc1~dfsg-6.1+deb7u9.

We recommend that you upgrade your libgd2 packages.
