The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201408-06 (libpng: Multiple vulnerabilities)

The png_push_read_chunk function in pngpread.c in the progressive       decoder enters an infinite loop, when it encounters a zero-length IDAT       chunk. In addition certain integer overflows have been detected and       corrected.
The 1.2 branch is not affected by these vulnerabilities.

Impact :

A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted PNG       file using an application linked against libpng, possibly resulting in       Denial of Service.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.
