news 28 Posted May 30, 2016 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA-3589-1 security ( -at -) debian.org https://www.debian.org/security/ Salvatore Bonaccorso May 30, 2016 https://www.debian.org/security/faq - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : gdk-pixbuf CVE ID : CVE-2015-7552 CVE-2015-8875 Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in gdk-pixbuf, a toolkit for image loading and pixel buffer manipulation. A remote attacker can take advantage of these flaws to cause a denial-of-service against an application using gdk-pixbuf (application crash), or potentially, to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the application, if a malformed image is opened. For the stable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed in version 2.31.1-2+deb8u5. We recommend that you upgrade your gdk-pixbuf packages.
