Updated gdk-pixbuf2.0 packages fix security vulnerability

Publication date: 21 May 2024
Modification date: 21 May 2024
Type: security
Affected Mageia releases : 9
CVE: CVE-2022-48622

Description

In GNOME GdkPixbuf (aka gdk-pixbuf) through 2.42.10, the ANI (Windows
animated cursor) decoder encounters heap memory corruption (in
ani_load_chunk in io-ani.c) when parsing chunks in a crafted .ani file.
A crafted file could allow an attacker to overwrite heap metadata,
leading to a denial of service or code execution attack. This occurs in
gdk_pixbuf_set_option() in gdk-pixbuf.c.
