CVE-2015-7673 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
Upgrade Debian:8 gdk-pixbuf to version 2.31.1-2+deb8u3 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gdk-pixbuf package and not the gdk-pixbuf package as distributed by Debian.
See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.
io-tga.c in gdk-pixbuf before 2.32.0 uses heap memory after its allocation failed, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted Truevision TGA (TARGA) file.
