CVE-2016-10164 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade Ubuntu:14.04 libxpm to version 1:3.5.10-1ubuntu0.1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libxpm package and not the libxpm package as distributed by Ubuntu.
See How to fix? for Ubuntu:14.04 relevant fixed versions and status.
Multiple integer overflows in libXpm before 3.5.12, when a program requests parsing XPM extensions on a 64-bit platform, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write) or execute arbitrary code via (1) the number of extensions or (2) their concatenated length in a crafted XPM file, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.
