Debian DSA-1028-1 : libimager-perl - programming error

low Nessus Plugin ID 22570

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

Kjetil Kjernsmo discovered a bug in libimager-perl, a Perl extension for generating 24 bit images, which can lead to a segmentation fault if it operates on 4-channel JPEG images.

Solution

Upgrade the libimager-perl package.

The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain this package.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in version 0.44-1sarge1.
