Description Jan Lieskovsky 2009-07-27 16:37:33 UTC
An integer overflow flaw, leading to heap-based buffer overflow was found
in the OpenEXR's routine, decompressing range of values in the pixel data.
A remote attacker provide a specially-crafted image file, which once 
opened, by a local, unsuspecting user, would lead to denial of service
("exrmakepreview crash") or potentially, arbitrary code execution with
the privileges of user opening the image.
