+ <background>
+ <p>
+ XLI and Xloadimage are X11 image manipulation utilities.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ When XLI or Xloadimage process an image, they create a new image
+ object to contain the new image, copying the title from the old image
+ to the newly created image. Ariel Berkman reported that the 'zoom',
+ 'reduce', and 'rotate' functions use a fixed length buffer to contain
+ the new title, which could be overwritten by the NIFF or XPM image
+ processors.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A malicious user could craft a malicious XPM or NIFF file and
+ entice a user to view it using XLI, or manipulate it using Xloadimage,
+ potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code with the
+ permissions of the user running XLI or Xloadimage.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All XLI users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=media-gfx/xli-1.17.0-r2&quot;</code>
