fedora
Calendar Grey October 5, 2018
Dist Fedora Esm H88
The CImg library received a significant update in Fedora, addressing various critical problems such as buffer overflow vulnerabilities and denial-of-service scenarios.
Update to 2.3.6 release

Summary

The CImg Library is an open-source C++ toolkit for image processing.

It consists in a single header file 'CImg.h' providing a minimal set of C++

classes and methods that can be used in your own sources, to load/save,

process and display images. Very portable, efficient and easy to use,

it's a pleasant library for developping image processing algorithms in C++.

Update to 2.3.6 release. Fixes CVE-2018-7587, CVE-2018-7588, CVE-2018-7589,

CVE-2018-7637, CVE-2018-7638, CVE-2018-7639, CVE-2018-7640, CVE-2018-7641
