Description Josh Bressers 2004-08-27 18:46:08 UTC
Chris Evans has discovered a number of stack overflows and an integer
overflow in the X.org libXpm library.  It is unknown what all uses
this library for xpm processing, so far we have verified that the gimp
does use it.

This issue currently has no embargo date.

This issue also affects RHEL2.1

Comment 4 Mike A. Harris 2004-09-14 19:04:12 UTC
Did a query to see potential impact on an installed system.  This
system is not an everything install, but gives an idea of some
packages that would be affected nonetheless.
