    disclosure.

  <access>remote</access>
  <affected>
    <package name="media-libs/libpng" auto="yes" arch="*">
      <unaffected range="ge">1.2.37</unaffected>

  <background>
    <p>
    libpng is the official PNG reference library used to read, write and
    manipulate PNG images.
    </p>

  <description>
    <p>
    Jeff Phillips discovered that libpng does not properly parse 1-bit
    interlaced images with width values that are not divisible by 8, which
    causes libpng to include uninitialized bits in certain rows of a PNG
    file.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="low">
    <p>
    A remote attacker might entice a user to open a specially crafted PNG
    file, possibly resulting in the disclosure of sensitive memory
    portions.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All libpng users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=media-libs/libpng-1.2.37&quot;</code>
  </resolution>
