Synopsis:	Important: libpng security update
Issue date:	2010-07-14
CVE Names:	CVE-2009-2042 CVE-2010-0205 CVE-2010-1205
                   CVE-2010-2249

A memory corruption flaw was found in the way applications, using the
libpng library and its progressive reading method, decoded certain PNG
images. An attacker could create a specially-crafted PNG image that, 
when opened, could cause an application using libpng to crash or, 
potentially, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user 
running the application. (CVE-2010-1205)

A denial of service flaw was found in the way applications using the 
libpng library decoded PNG images that have certain, highly compressed 
ancillary chunks. An attacker could create a specially-crafted PNG image 
that could cause an application using libpng to consume excessive 
amounts of memory and CPU time, and possibly crash. (CVE-2010-0205)

A memory leak flaw was found in the way applications using the libpng
library decoded PNG images that use the Physical Scale (sCAL) extension. 
An attacker could create a specially-crafted PNG image that could cause 
an application using libpng to exhaust all available memory and possibly 
crash or exit. (CVE-2010-2249)

A sensitive information disclosure flaw was found in the way 
applications using the libpng library processed 1-bit interlaced PNG 
images. An attacker could create a specially-crafted PNG image that 
could cause an application using libpng to disclose uninitialized 
memory. (CVE-2009-2042)

All running applications using libpng or libpng10 must be restarted for 
the update to take effect.
