+ ICC profiles. It is used by many applications including GIMP, Firefox and
+ Chromium.

+ <description>
+ <p>It was discovered that LittleCMS (aka Little Color Management System)
+ had an integer overflow in the AllocateDataSet function in cmscgats.c.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A remote attacker could entice a user or automated system to open a
+ specially crafted file containing malicious color data, possibly
+ resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the
+ process or 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 "&gt;=media-libs/lcms-2.10"
+ </code>
