Package        : libgd2
CVE ID         : CVE-2014-2497 CVE-2014-9709
Debian Bug     : 744719

Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in libgd2, a graphics library:

CVE-2014-2497

    The gdImageCreateFromXpm() function would try to dereference a NULL
    pointer when reading an XPM file with a special color table. This
    could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via
    crafted XPM files.

CVE-2014-9709

    Importing an invalid GIF file using the gdImageCreateFromGif() function
    would cause a read buffer overflow that could allow remote attackers to
    cause a denial of service (crash) via crafted GIF files.

For the stable distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed in
version 2.0.36~rc1~dfsg-6.1+deb7u1.

For the upcoming stable distribution (jessie), these problems have been
fixed in version 2.1.0-5.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
version 2.1.0-5.

We recommend that you upgrade your libgd2 packages.
