    A bug was found in the way gdk-pixbuf processes XPM images. An attacker
    could create a carefully crafted XPM file in such a way that it could cause
    an application linked with gdk-pixbuf to execute arbitrary code when the
    file was opened by a victim. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
    project has assigned the name CVE-2005-3186 to this issue.

    Ludwig Nussel discovered an integer overflow bug in the way gdk-pixbuf
    processes XPM images. An attacker could create a carefully crafted XPM file
    in such a way that it could cause an application linked with gdk-pixbuf to
    execute arbitrary code or crash when the file was opened by a victim. The
    Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the name
    CVE-2005-2976 to this issue.

    Ludwig Nussel also discovered an infinite-loop denial of service bug in the
    way gdk-pixbuf processes XPM images. An attacker could create a carefully
    crafted XPM file in such a way that it could cause an application linked
    with gdk-pixbuf to stop responding when the file was opened by a victim.
    The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the name
    CVE-2005-2975 to this issue.
 
Cheers,
        Moritz
