manipulating PNG (Portable Network Graphics) image format files.

A flaw was found in the handling of malformed images in libpng. An attacker
could create a carefully crafted PNG image file in such a way that it could
cause an application linked with libpng to crash when the file was
manipulated. (CVE-2007-2445)
