+ <background>
+ <p>libjpeg-turbo is a JPEG image codec that uses SIMD instructions (MMX,
+ SSE2, NEON, AltiVec) to accelerate baseline JPEG compression and
+ decompression.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>The accelerated Huffman decoder was previously invoked if there were 128
+ bytes in the input buffer. However, it is possible to construct a JPEG
+ image with Huffman blocks &gt; 430 bytes in length. This release simply
+ increases the minimum buffer size for the accelerated Huffman decoder to
+ 512 bytes, which should accommodate any possible input.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A remote attacker could coerce the victim to run a specially crafted
+ image file resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All libjpeg-turbo users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=media-libs/libjpeg-turbo-1.5.0"
