libraw vulnerabilities
==========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
- - Ubuntu 17.10
- - Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
- - Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Summary:
LibRaw could be made to crash or run programs as your login if it opened a
specially crafted file.
Software Description:
- - libraw: raw image decoder library
Details:
It was discovered that LibRaw incorrectly handled photo files. If a user or
automated system were tricked into processing a specially crafted photo
file, a remote attacker could cause applications linked against LibRaw to
crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary
code.
Update instructions:
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:
Ubuntu 17.10:
libraw16 0.18.2-2ubuntu0.2
Ubuntu 16.04 LTS:
libraw15 0.17.1-1ubuntu0.2
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS:
libraw9 0.15.4-1ubuntu0.2
After a standard system update you need to restart your session to make
all the necessary changes.
