This document outlines a security enhancement for Fedora 23 regarding imlib2, targeting critical vulnerabilities and optimizations.
Rebase to version 1.4.7 Security fix for CVE-2014-9762, CVE-2014-9763, CVE-2014-9764

Summary

Imlib 2 is a library that does image file loading and saving as well

as rendering, manipulation, arbitrary polygon support, etc. It does

ALL of these operations FAST. Imlib2 also tries to be highly

intelligent about doing them, so writing naive programs can be done

easily, without sacrificing speed. This is a complete rewrite over

the Imlib 1.x series. The architecture is more modular, simple, and

flexible.
