Advisory Published
Opening an image created on certain pentax cameras with gwenview, which
uses the exiv2 library, causes gwenview to segfault. Exiv2 upstream
created a patch to resolve this problem (bugfix - applies only to mga6).
The following security issues were also fixed:
*Heap overflow in Exiv2::Image::printIFDStructure (CVE-2017-11336)
*Invalid free in the Action::TaskFactory::cleanup function
(CVE-2017-11337)
*Infinite loop in the Exiv2::Image::printIFDStructure function of
image.cpp (CVE-2017-11338)
*Heap-based buffer overflow in the Image::printIFDStructure function of
image.cpp (CVE-2017-11339)
*Segmentation fault in the XmpParser::terminate() function
(CVE-2017-11340)
*Illegal address access in the extend_alias_table function in
localealias.c (CVE-2017-11553)

*Heap-based buffer over-read in the Exiv2::Image::io function in
image.cpp (CVE-2017-12957)
*Bad free in Exiv2::Image::~Image (CVE-2017-14857)
*Invalid memory address dereference in Exiv2::DataValue::read
