A bug was found in the way gdk-pixbuf processes XPM images.

opened by a victim. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
project has assigned the name CVE-2005-3186 to this issue.

Ludwig Nussel discovered an integer overflow bug in the way
gdk-pixbuf processes XPM images. An attacker could create a

an application linked with gdk-pixbuf to execute arbitrary
code or crash when the file was opened by a victim. The
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned
the name CVE-2005-2976 to this issue.

Ludwig Nussel also discovered an infinite-loop denial of
service bug in the way gdk-pixbuf processes XPM images. An

way that it could cause an application linked with
gdk-pixbuf to stop responding when the file was opened by a
victim. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has
assigned the name CVE-2005-2975 to this issue.
