Dear LittleCMS community: A null pointer dereference flaw was found in LittleCMS 1.18 by handling transformations on monochrome profiles. See attached a patch for lcms-1.18 that corrects such bug. I have repacked the distribution, applying this patch, to become: lcms-1.18a Description: Monochrome matrix-shaper profiles, when used as output may raise a NULL dereferencing when the curves are malformed. This bug is only exploitable if the application uses monochrome output, and then the crafted profile should be in the output direction. Does not affect input profiles, so an attacker could NOT use this flaw by creating a specially-crafted image.
