gdk-pixbuf vulnerabilities
==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

– Ubuntu 15.04
– Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
– Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

Summary:

GDK-PixBuf could be made to crash or run programs as your login if it
opened a specially crafted file.

Software Description:
– gdk-pixbuf: GDK Pixbuf library

Details:

Gustavo Grieco discovered that the GDK-PixBuf library did not properly
handle scaling tga image files, leading to a heap overflow. If a
user or automated system were tricked into opening a tga image file,
a remote attacker could use this flaw to cause GDK-PixBuf to crash,
resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.
(CVE-2015-7673)
