Description Josh Bressers 2005-10-07 19:22:29 UTC

A number of buffer overflow issues when processing NIFF images was reported to
bugtraq:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=bugtraq&m=112862493918840&w=2

These issues are triggered by constructing a NIFF image with a very long
embedded image title.

This issue should also affect RHEL2.1 and RHEL3
