Summary
NVIDIA device drivers for 32-bit and 64-bit Linux have addressed
the following vulnerabilities in libpng.
Vulnerability Details
CVE-ID: CVE-2015-8472
Description: libpng is vulnerable to a buffer
overflow, caused by improper bounds checking by the png_get_PLTE()
and png_set_PLTE() functions. By persuading a victim to open a
specially crafted PNG image, a remote attacker could overflow a
buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system or cause the
application to crash.
CVSS Base Score: 6.3
CVSS Temporal Score: See http://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/109392
for current score
CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L)
CVE-ID: CVE-2015-8126
Description: libpng is vulnerable to a buffer
overflow, caused by improper bounds checking by the png_set_PLTE()
and png_get_PLTE() functions. By persuading a victim to open a
specially-crafted PNG file, a remote attacker could overflow a
buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system.
CVSS Base Score: 7.8
CVSS Temporal Score: See http://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/108010

CVSS Environmental Score*: Undefined
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.0/AV:L/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)
CVE-ID: CVE-2015-7981
Description: libpng could allow a remote
attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by an
out-of-bounds read in the png_convert_to_rfc1123 function. An
attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive
information.
CVSS Base Score: 5.3
