Package: libexif12
Version: 0.6.18-1
Severity: serious
Tags: security

Hi,

the following CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id was
published for libexif.

Vulnerability description[0]:
> A flaw in libexif was discovered that causes a heap buffer to overflow
> when certain invalid EXIF images are processed. The flaw occurs in the
> tag fixup routine which attempts to convert in place an array of 8-bit
> integers into 16-bit integers. This fixup is performed by default after
> reading an image and until version 0.6.18 there was no easy way to disable
> it, so it is likely that nearly all applications using libexif to read
> images are vulnerable.

If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE id in your changelog entry.

For further information see:
