Fedora Core 6: 2007-549 Urgent: Libexif Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

Most digital cameras produce EXIF files, which are JPEG files with

extra tags that contain information about the image. The EXIF library

allows you to parse an EXIF file and read the data from those tags.

This update to the latest upstream release fixes a number of

bugs, among them a possible integer overflow in the

exif_data_load_data_entry function (CVE-2007-2645), which

allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of

service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via

crafted EXIF data.
