Description

Integer overflow in the exif_data_load_data_entry function in libexif/exif-data.c in Libexif before 0.6.16 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or execute arbitrary code via an image with many EXIF components, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

• libexif libexif 0.6.9 • libexif libexif 0.6.11 • libexif libexif 0.6.12 • libexif libexif 0.6.13 • libexif libexif 0.6.14 • libexif libexif 0.6.15
