Most digital cameras produce EXIF files, which are JPEG files with extra tags that contain information
about the image. The EXIF library allows you to parse an EXIF file and read the data from those tags.
Security issues fixed with this release:
CVE-2012-2812
The exif_entry_get_value function in exif-entry.c in the EXIF Tag Parsing Library (aka libexif) before
0.6.21 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) or possibly obtain
sensitive information from process memory via crafted EXIF tags in an image.
CVE-2012-2813
The exif_convert_utf16_to_utf8 function in exif-entry.c in the EXIF Tag Parsing Library (aka libexif)
before 0.6.21 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) or possibly obtain
sensitive information from process memory via crafted EXIF tags in an image.
CVE-2012-2814
Buffer overflow in the exif_entry_format_value function in exif-entry.c in the EXIF Tag Parsing Library
(aka libexif) 0.6.20 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary
code via crafted EXIF tags in an image.
CVE-2012-2836
The exif_data_load_data function in exif-data.c in the EXIF Tag Parsing Library (aka libexif) before
0.6.21 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) or possibly obtain
sensitive information from process memory via crafted EXIF tags in an image.
CVE-2012-2837
The mnote_olympus_entry_get_value function in olympus/mnote-olympus-entry.c in the EXIF Tag Parsing
Library (aka libexif) before 0.6.21 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (divide-by-zero
error) via an image with crafted EXIF tags that are not properly handled during the formatting of EXIF
maker note tags.
CVE-2012-2840
Off-by-one error in the exif_convert_utf16_to_utf8 function in exif-entry.c in the EXIF Tag Parsing
Library (aka libexif) before 0.6.21 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly
execute arbitrary code via crafted EXIF tags in an image.
CVE-2012-2841
Integer underflow in the exif_entry_get_value function in exif-entry.c in the EXIF Tag Parsing Library
(aka libexif) 0.6.20 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via vectors involving a
crafted buffer-size parameter during the formatting of an EXIF tag, leading to a heap-based buffer
overflow.
