+ <p>LittleCMS, or short lcms, is a color management system for working with
+ ICC profiles. It is used by many applications including GIMP and Firefox.

+ <description>
+ <p>Multiple stack-based buffer overflows and a profile parser error have
+ been found in LittleCMS.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A remote attacker could entice a user or automated system to open a
+ specially crafted file containing a malicious ICC profile, possibly
+ resulting in a Denial of Service condition.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All LittleCMS users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=media-libs/lcms-2.6-r1"
+ </code>
+
+ <p>Packages which depend on this library may need to be recompiled. Tools
+ such as revdep-rebuild may assist in identifying these packages.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>NOTE: Gentoo has discontinued support for the LittleCMS 1.9 branch. </p>
