Public security bug reported:

CVE 2009-2369

in wxWidgets 2.8.10 allows attackers to cause a denial of service
(crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted JPEG file,
which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow. NOTE: the provenance of
this information is unknown; the details are obtained solely from third
party information.

Fixed in Karmic already.
