Description

Integer overflow in the gdk_cairo_set_source_pixbuf function in gdk/gdkcairo.c in GTK+ before 3.9.8, as used in eom, gnome-photos, eog, gambas3, thunar, pinpoint, and possibly other applications, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a large image file, which triggers a large memory allocation.

Solution(s)

  • ubuntu-upgrade-eog
  • ubuntu-upgrade-libgtk-3-0
  • ubuntu-upgrade-libgtk2-0-0
