    ===========================================================
    Ubuntu Security Notice USN-33-1 November 29, 2004
    libgd vulnerabilities
    CAN-2004-0941
    ===========================================================

    A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

    Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog)

    The following packages are affected:

    libgd1-noxpm
    libgd1-xpm

    The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
    version 1.8.4-36ubuntu0.2. In general, a standard system upgrade is
    sufficient to effect the necessary changes.

    Details follow:

    CAN-2004-0990 described several buffer overflows which had been
    discovered in libgd's PNG handling functions. Another update is
    required because the update from USN-21-1 was not sufficient to
    prevent every possible attack.

    If an attacker tricks a user into loading a malicious PNG or XPM
    image, they could leverage this into executing arbitrary code in the
    context of the user opening image.

    This vulnerability might lead to privilege escalation in customized
    systems that use server applications which link libgd. However, Warty
    does not ship such server applications (PHP in Warty uses libgd2 which
    was already fixed in USN-25-1).
