Debian DLA-1057-1 : libraw security update

critical Nessus Plugin ID 102481

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

Some memory corruption bugs were discovered in libraw, a raw image decoder library, which could be triggered via maliciously crafted input files to cause denial of service or other unspecified impact.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 0.14.6-2+deb7u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your libraw packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
