+ <title>GD: Integer overflow</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ The PNG image decoding routines in the GD library contain an integer
+ overflow that may allow execution of arbitrary code with the rights of the
+ program decoding a malicious PNG image.

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ The GD graphics library is an open source library which allows programmers
+ to easily generate PNG, JPEG, GIF and WBMP images from many different
+ programming languages.

+ infamous41md found an integer overflow in the memory allocation procedure
+ of the GD routine that handles loading PNG image files.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could entice a user to load a carefully crafted PNG image
+ file in a GD-powered application, or send a PNG image to a web application
+ which uses GD PNG decoding functions. This could potentially lead to
+ execution of arbitrary code with the rights of the program loading the
+ image.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All GD users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=media-libs/gd-2.0.32"</code>
