How to fix?

Upgrade Echo:latest lcms2 to version 2.16-2+e1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream lcms2 package and not the lcms2 package as distributed by Echo. See How to fix? for Echo:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

A heap buffer overflow vulnerability has been identified in thesmooth2() in cmsgamma.c in lcms2-2.16 which allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service. NOTE: the Supplier disputes this because "this is not exploitable as this function is never called on normal color management, is there only as a helper for low-level programming and investigation."
