imlib2 multiple image loader load() integer overflow
| imlib2-load-overflow (30064) |  High Risk |
Description:
imlib2 is vulnerable to an integer overflow in the load() function of multiple image loaders, caused by the improper handling of measurements of malformed images. By persuading a victim to open a specially-crafted ARGB, PNG, LBM, JPEG or TIFF file, a remote attacker could execute arbitrary code on the system or cause the application to crash.
