Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the 340dc4c1-895a-11f0-b6e5-4ccc6adda413 advisory.

    Kevin Backhouse reports:
    A denial-of-service was found in Exiv2 version v0.28.5: a quadratic               algorithm in the ICC profile parsing code in jpegBase::readMetadata()               can cause Exiv2 to run for a long time. Exiv2 is a command-line utility               and C++ library for reading, writing, deleting, and modifying the               metadata of image files. The denial-of-service is triggered when Exiv2               is used to read the metadata of a crafted jpg image file.
