Multiple vulnerabilities has been discovered and corrected in libpng :

The png_format_buffer function in pngerror.c in libpng allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted PNG image that triggers an out-of-bounds read during the copying of error-message data. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of a CVE-2004-0421 regression (CVE-2011-2501).

Buffer overflow in libpng, when used by an application that calls the png_rgb_to_gray function but not the png_set_expand function, allows remote attackers to overwrite memory with an arbitrary amount of data, and possibly have unspecified other impact, via a crafted PNG image (CVE-2011-2690).

The png_err function in pngerror.c in libpng makes a function call using a NULL pointer argument instead of an empty-string argument, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted PNG image (CVE-2011-2691). NOTE:
This does not affect the binary packages in Mandriva, but could affect users if PNG_NO_ERROR_TEXT is defined using the libpng-source-1.?.?? package.

The png_handle_sCAL function in pngrutil.c in libpng does not properly handle invalid sCAL chunks, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted PNG image that triggers the reading of uninitialized memory (CVE-2011-2692).

The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
