---------------------------------------------------------------------

Product : Fedora Core 3
Name : gdk-pixbuf
Version : 0.22.0
Release : 16.fc3.3
Summary : An image loading library used with GNOME.
Description :
The gdk-pixbuf package contains an image loading library used with the
GNOME GUI desktop environment. The GdkPixBuf library provides image
loading facilities, the rendering of a GdkPixBuf into various formats
(drawables or GdkRGB buffers), and a cache interface.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

The gdk-pixbuf package contains an image loading library
used with the GNOME GUI desktop environment.

A bug was found in the way gdk-pixbuf processes XPM images.
An attacker could create a carefully crafted XPM file in
such a way that it could cause an application linked with
gdk-pixbuf to execute arbitrary code when the file was
opened by a victim. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
project has assigned the name CVE-2005-3186 to this issue.

Ludwig Nussel discovered an integer overflow bug in the way
gdk-pixbuf processes XPM images. An attacker could create a
carefully crafted XPM file in such a way that it could cause
an application linked with gdk-pixbuf to execute arbitrary
code or crash when the file was opened by a victim. The
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned
the name CVE-2005-2976 to this issue.

Ludwig Nussel also discovered an infinite-loop denial of
service bug in the way gdk-pixbuf processes XPM images. An
attacker could create a carefully crafted XPM file in such a
way that it could cause an application linked with
gdk-pixbuf to stop responding when the file was opened by a
victim. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has
assigned the name CVE-2005-2975 to this issue.

Users of gdk-pixbuf are advised to upgrade to these updated
packages, which contain backported patches and are not
vulnerable to these issues.
