Description David Walser 2018-01-19 15:08:15 CET
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #22399 +++

Debian and Ubuntu have issued advisories on January 15:
https://www.debian.org/security/2018/dsa-4088

The issue appears to have been fixed upstream in 2.36.11, and Debian and Ubuntu have links to the upstream patch/commit:

https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2017/CVE-2017-1000422.html

I would like to fix this core package in Mageia 5; sysadmins, please submit it.

Firefox uses this library.  The update only affects GIF decoding, which still works fine in a new Firefox instance after updating on Mageia 5 x86_64.

Whiteboard: (none) => MGA5-64-OK
