    JPEG format.

  <description>
    <p>
    Tavis Ormandy of the Gentoo Linux Auditing Team discovered that the
    vulnerable JPEG library ebuilds compile JPEG without the --maxmem
    feature which is not recommended.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    By enticing a user to load a specially crafted JPEG image file an
    attacker could cause a Denial of Service, due to memory exhaustion.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    JPEG users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=media-libs/jpeg-6b-r7"</code>
  </resolution>
