+ <title>libexif: Integer overflow vulnerability</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ libexif fails to handle Exif (EXchangeable Image File) data inputs, making
+ it vulnerable to an integer overflow.
+ </synopsis>
+ <product type="ebuild">libexif</product>
+ <announced>June 05, 2007</announced>
+ <revised>June 05, 2007: 01</revised>
+ <bug>178081</bug>
+ <access>remote</access>
+ <affected>
+ <package name="media-libs/libexif" auto="yes" arch="*">
+ <unaffected range="ge">0.6.15</unaffected>
+ <vulnerable range="lt">0.6.15</vulnerable>
+ </package>
+ </affected>
+ <background>
+ <p>
+ libexif is a library for parsing, editing and saving Exif data.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Victor Stinner reported an integer overflow in the
+ exif_data_load_data_entry() function from file exif-data.c while
+ handling Exif data.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker could entice a user to process a file with specially
+ crafted Exif extensions with an application making use of libexif,
+ which will trigger the integer overflow and potentially execute
+ arbitrary code or crash the application.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All libexif users should upgrade to the latest version. Please note
+ that users upgrading from "&lt;=media-libs/libexif-0.6.13" should also run
+ revdep-rebuild after their upgrade.
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=media-libs/libexif-0.6.15&quot;
+ # revdep-rebuild --library=/usr/lib/libexif.so</code>
