DSA-1038-1 xzgv Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Andrea Barisani discovered that xzgv, a picture viewer for X with a thumbnail-based selector, attempts to decode JPEG images within the CMYK/YCCK colour space incorrectly, which could lead to the execution of arbitrary code. For the old stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 0.7-6woody3. For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 0.8-3sarge1. For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem will be fixed soon. We recommend that you upgrade your xzgv package.
