||
JPEG library: Denial of Service Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200606-11 (JPEG library: Denial of Service) Tavis Ormandy of the Gentoo Linux Auditing Team discovered that the vulnerable JPEG library ebuilds compile JPEG without the --maxmem feature which is not recommended. Impact By enticing a user to load a specially crafted JPEG image file an attacker could cause a Denial of Service, due to memory exhaustion. Workaround There is no known workaround at this time. Solution: JPEG users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=media-libs/jpeg-6b-r7" Network Security Threat Level: Medium Networks Security ID: Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: (C) 2006 Michel Arboi |
