+ <p>
+ LittleCMS, or short lcms, is a color management system for working with
+ ICC profiles. It is used by many applications including GIMP and
+ Firefox.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ RedHat reported a null-pointer dereference flaw while processing
+ monochrome ICC profiles (CVE-2009-0793).
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Chris Evans of Google discovered the following vulnerabilities:
+ </p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>LittleCMS contains severe memory leaks (CVE-2009-0581).</li>
+ <li>LittleCMS is prone to multiple integer overflows, leading to a
+ heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2009-0723).</li>
+ <li>The
+ ReadSetOfCurves() function is vulnerable to stack-based buffer
+ overflows when called from code paths without a bounds check on channel
+ counts (CVE-2009-0733).</li>
+ </ul>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could entice a user or automated system to open a
+ specially crafted file containing a malicious ICC profile, possibly
+ resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the
+ user running the application or memory exhaustion, leading to a Denial
+ of Service condition.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All LittleCMS users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=media-libs/lcms-1.18-r1&quot;</code>
