<background>
<p>SWFTools is a collection of SWF manipulation and generation utilities
written by Rainer Böhme and Matthias Kramm.

<description>
<p>Integer overflow errors in the "getPNG()" function in png.c and the
"jpeg_load()" function in jpeg.c could cause a heap-based buffer
overflow.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted PNG or
JPEG file, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary code with the
privileges of the process, or a Denial of Service condition.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>Gentoo discontinued support for SWFTools. We recommend that users
unmerge swftools:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --unmerge "media-gfx/swftools"
</code>
<p>NOTE: Users could upgrade to ">=media-gfx/swftools-0.9.1", however
these packages are not currently stable.
