slackware-security: libjpeg-turbo (SSA:2020-176-02)
[slackware-security] libjpeg-turbo (SSA:2020-176-02)
New libjpeg-turbo packages are available for Slackware 14.2 and -current to
fix a security issue.
Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/libjpeg-turbo-2.0.5-i586-1_slack14.2.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes bugs and a security issue:
Fixed an issue in the PPM reader that caused a buffer overrun in cjpeg,
TJBench, or the `tjLoadImage()` function if one of the values in a binary
PPM/PGM input file exceeded the maximum value defined in the file's header
and that maximum value was less than 255.

(* Security fix *)
