    Classification: Other
    Target Release: ---


oCERT advisory oCERT-2009-009 was published describing a flaw in
ocaml-camlimages:

  http://www.ocert.org/advisories/ocert-2009-009.html

  CamlImages, an open source image processing library, suffers from several
  integer overflows which may lead to a potentially exploitable heap
  overflow and result in arbitrary code execution.

  The vulnerability is triggered by PNG image parsing, the read_png_file
  and read_png_file_as_rgb24 functions do not properly validate the width
  and height of the image. Specific PNG images with large width and height
  can be crafted to trigger the vulnerability.

Issue was reported to affect both 2.2 and 3.0.1, which no upstream patch
available at the moment.
