NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gegl package and not the gegl package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

Multiple integer overflows in operations/external/ppm-load.c in GEGL (Generic Graphics Library) 0.2.0 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a large (1) width or (2) height value in a Portable Pixel Map (ppm) image, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
